    Hey, I just noticed the new FIFA schedule for friendlies:

    May 31st, 2008: Argentina vs Jamaica (London)
    Jun 4, 2008: Argentina vs Hungary (Budapest)

    I'm thinking of going to the Budapest game, but may also try for the
    one in London (should be a goal fest! :D). Strange that they pick London
    for this game against Jamaica!! Why not Scotland/England/Wales?

    Let me know if you plan on attending, we can meet and support Argentina!

    They're probably playing in London because many Jamaican players play in England, and many people with Jamaican heritage also live there.

    Not to hijack the thread, but I notice the Egypt friendly in Cairo for March 26 isn't listed on that FIFA fixture list. Does anyone know if that is still happening?

    good question - where does one usually buy tickets for these friendlies? Is it just advertised locally? Or is this available through some international ticketing agency? Or do I just give FIFA my back account #? :p

    Didn't know about the Cairo game.. !

    Yes it will.

    Now regarding the match with Jamaica, they are playing in London because at first the match was planned to be against England, but England will be playing someone else.

    Also almost confirmed for February of 2009 Argentina will visit Paris once again to play France, and late in 2009 may visit Italy to play the home side.

    So it's confirmed, great news for ya guys, go to the United States one so you can make the home supporting feel embrassed, but then again it could be kind of the same scenario in San Diego against Mexico, oh well you may as well go to both of them like locoxriver says.:cool:

    Juan Román Riquelme agradeció los elogios de Basile: "Me trata con mucho cariño y me dio un respaldo muy grande cuando yo no jugaba", tiró, y además aseguró que no le sorprendería si Palermo, Palacio, Ortega y Verón son citados nuevamente.
