Argentina's Group
Lionel Scaloni's team will face Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and Poland, three seemingly accessible rivals for the Albiceleste, who have gone 31 consecutive matches without losing, with 20 victories and 11 draws. They are the favorites to finish in first place with a perfect score.
The daily Olé, with a lot of hope, titled it as follows: "Argentina, not bad to start". They also mention that they could face Brazil in a hypothetical final. The TyC Sports portal, on the other hand, placed it in a very sober way: "Argentina's Group C in the Qatar 2022 World Cup: Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and Poland." In the same line, the newspaper La Nación put the following headline: "What the draw left. The World Cup promises a start with 12 days of madness and Argentina very excited", accompanied by the photo of Cafu and a subtitle highlighting the draw and the rivals of the Albiceleste. "Argentina debuts against Saudi Arabia and then faces Mexico and Poland," Clarín said.
