Argentina set to play Israel in June in Europe

Argentina are set to play Israel in June in Europe.

Lionel Scaloni may have another opponent set for the month of June. While Argentina will play Italy on June 1 in London at Wembley, it does appear that they will play on June 6 against Israel.

As we reported earlier this month, the team were rumored to be playing Israel and that looks like it will happen. Per a Tweet by Hernán Castillo, the match and it being played in Europe is a real possibility.

  1. For those who don’t know, the obsession with playing a friendly with Israel just before the World Cup started in 1986. It was that match that separated the weak qualification team from the champions of the World Cup.
    We lost two friendly games earlier in the year, then beat Israel, then won the first game in the World Cup against South Korea and the rest us history.
