Duel of giants! The Argentina national team will host their Brazilian counterparts in an exciting match to be played at 6:30 p.m. (Peruvian time) for matchday 14 of the qualifiers for Qatar 2022. In preparation for this duel, the authorities of the province of San Juan, Argentina, decided to remodel the legendary stadium, which now has a new face.

Among the renovations carried out are the repairs of the Central Hall, the boxes, the warm-up areas, and the press area. In addition, the stadium seats were painted in the colors of the Argentine flag and the dressing rooms were remodeled with images of the recent victory of the Argentine national team in the Copa America.

The colossus will be the scene of the South American superclassic between Brazil and Argentina for the first time in its history. This will be the second official match of the Argentine team in the qualifiers that the stadium will host, after being the venue for the match between Argentina and Colombia in 2016.

Approximately 25,000 people will witness an unprecedented duel between the Brazilian squad and the champion of America, a match for which a capacity of 100% was enabled and sold out within minutes of the start of ticket sales.

This will be the third time that the great classic is played in the interior of Argentina, with the two previous ones being held at the Rosario Central stadium. This will be the 104th meeting between both national teams, with 39 victories each and 25 draws in their historical statistics.
