The Argentina national team are confirmed to play the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in Abu Dhabi.
Argentina will play, what is set to be the last friendly match before the World Cup, on November 16 in UAE. Rodolfo Arruabarrena, who is presently coaching the UAE national team, confirmed it himself. Speaking in an interview with D Sports Radio, here is what he had to say:
“They confirmed it to be one week ago. November 16, it will be in Abu Dhabi. We hope that the group of players can make the most of this opportunity and that it will help Argentina to reach the Cup in the best conditions.
“Every day there is less and less to go and today, Argentina is one of the candidates.”
Very good.
The first thing that popped into my mind after the game against Italy was that we don’t need to play competitive games anymore until the world cup.
Between now and the World Cup, we have a game against Egypt and one against UAE, I hope there is nothing there, specially that dreaded game against Brazil.
