http://www.skysports.com/football/match_facts/0,19762,11065_3344059,00.html I hope they are wrong as I saw Messi in the emirates in 2006 against Brazil and we all remember that score I want to see him win with Arg in England with me watching live, also the el monumental, is that another name for River plate's ground?
Yes, El Monumental is the more commonly used name. The official name of the stadium is "Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti"
http://www.telam.com.ar/vernota.php?tipo=N&idPub=206018&id=391417&dis=1&sec=1 Guess this throws down the idea of having an "Euro B" or domestic based squad for those matches. I haven't heard nor read anything about changing the location of the match against Portugal. Also it the match against Italy was removed from FIFA's listing, note that Italy plays on the 3rd against Estonia, until yesterday both matches were listed, now just the match against Estonia.
Still no official word on the proposed USA-Argentina friendly in late March. From what I've heard, the match is likely to take place but the venue remains uncertain after Seattle began to fade from consideration. http://voices.washingtonpost.com/soccerinsider/2010/12/dc_united_mls_americans_abroad.html
I hate it when Argentina plays the USA. I want neither to lose and it pulls on my heart. It's almost like a wasted game.
Romania friendly in August ? http://sport.hotnews.ro/stiri-fotbal-8134286-stadionul-lia-manoliu-grafic-gata-august-2011.htm http://sport.hotnews.ro/stiri-fotbal-7969129-amicalul-romania-argentina-august-2011.htm
yea its kinda off useless to play team like USA & Mexico.... I'll bet england vs usa part II would be alot more fun
Errm. No word on USA's match? If you look a couple of pages back you will see that AFA confirmed the friendlies against United States and Costa Rica. And also confirmed the friendly against Portugal in London. Look at the dates, they were confirmed on November 26th and December 1st.
THE GAME IS HAPPENING IN ARSENAL OK calm down Diego, its happening on the 9th FEB but non members like me can only aply for tickets from 10th Jan arsenal members can apply form 4th and the game is at 19:45, I am def going and will buy a Club Level - Midfield ticket for £70 anybody else as NYC and me are going, I will buy the tickets and get us all sat together and make a day out of it, pictures and stuff Let me know, well that is if the good seats are sold by then, look below but I think my choice is the best and I have to arsenal about 5 times for people info Here is the link http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archive/argentina-v-portugal-ticket-details we need to decide if anyone else wants to come before as the 10th JAN I am ordering ASAP
Attention: Bad news for the people that wanted to attend the match in London. The match between Argentina and Portugal will be played in Switzerland, apparently the match between England and Denmark in Wembley was scheduled afterwards but obviously being the home nation they have the priority.
YES!!!! It's in Geneva, Stade de la Praille! Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the news today. Sorry for you guys, but this made my day
I am ordering my ticket on 10th Jan and I called Arsenal and arse fans are buying tickets if anyone else wants to come and get seats together then let me know as I am gonna order £70 tickets wihch is half way line ones unless they are all sold out by 10th then I have to get the next best ones
Nevermind then, what i heard as the reason of why it was moved was more or less bullshit then, because yes it's moved because England is playing but not in England. Well i guess at least somebody is happy about this. Regarding the match against Romania, it'd be on August 11th in Bucharest for the opening of the new Stadionul Naţional(National Stadium) which will be finished in July and will replace the old one bulit in 1953.
I'm half an hour away from the stadium But Portugal will play at home. Switzerland has one of the largest Portuguese diaspora in the world. And if you add the Brazilians...
NEW YORK (AP)—The March 26 exhibition game between Argentina and the United States will likely be held at the New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press on Friday. The Argentina Football Association had announced the exhibition would be played at Seattle, but the sides instead decided on the Meadowlands and are in the late stages of negotiating a contract, the person said on condition of anonymity because negotiations are not yet complete. http://sports.yahoo.com/soccer/news?slug=ap-argentina-usexhibition
