The world champion celebrates a prestigious victory in the South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.

Legend: Lionel Messi remained rather inconspicuous for once. imago images/Action Plus

Nicolas Otamendi scored the decisive goal for the “Albiceleste” in the 63rd minute with a powerful header from a corner to make it 1-0 in Rio de Janeiro.

Brazil ended the game with ten men as Joelinton was shown the red card just a few minutes following being substituted (83′).

Brazil slips to 6th place

With the victory in the legendary Maracana, Argentina stayed at the top of the South American qualification for the 2026 World Cup. The 2-0 loss in Uruguay last Thursday – the first defeat since winning the World Cup in Qatar – has already been forgotten.

Brazil, on the other hand, slipped deeper into the crisis with its third defeat in a row. Coach Fernando Diniz’s team fell to 6th place, which was just enough to qualify.

Before the game there were violent fan riots in the stands. The Brazilian police used batons. Argentina’s players around superstar Lionel Messi tried to calm the situation, but later retreated to the dressing room.
