Sport.ru/ Football. On the night of November 22 in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), the match of the 6th round of the South American qualifying for the 2026 World Cup between the national teams of Brazil and Argentina took place on the field of the legendary Maracanã stadium. The meeting ended with the Albiceleste winning with a score of 1:0.
The only goal was scored in the 63rd minute by defending world champions Nicolas Otamendi.
It is worth noting that the Brazilians finished the match in the minority. In the 82nd minute, forward Joelinton saw a straight red card.
Interestingly, the start of the match between the teams was marred by a fight between fans and the police. Even Argentine football players intervened in the conflict, and the captain of the current world champions, Lionel Messi, then took the entire team from the field to a room under the stands.
The Argentina national team scored 15 points in six matches and ranks first in the qualifying table for the 2026 World Cup in the CONMEBOL zone. Brazil is in sixth place with 7 points.
