World Cup that was Qatar 2022 means less time to prep for 2026 in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, so don't be surprised to see CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying back on your screens this fall, less than one year since Argentina beat France to the 2022 crown.

Following Argentina’s 4-1 win against Brazil, Messi shared a heartfelt message on social media, praising his teammates and expressing his pride. He posted a story watching the match from bed, showing his unwavering connection to the national team.

Matheus Cunha got Brazil back in the game after dispossessing Cristian Romero in his own half. The Wolves forward then fired a shot from distance that beat Emiliano Martínez. Argentina soon retook control of the game, though, when Alexis Mac Allister sent a volley into the back of the net just before halftime.
