Argentina a învins categoric echipa din Burkina Faso, care a fost dezavantajată de sosirea foarte târzie la Buenos Aires

Argentina easily defeated Burkina Faso 7-0 in a friendly match, showcasing a significant skill gap exacerbated by the latter's fatigue from travel delays. The Argentine team scored five goals in the first half, with Lautaro Martinez and others contributing. Coach Lionel Scaloni used the opportunity to assess his squad, introducing 22 players, including three debutants. Burkina Faso's travel issues, caused by a canceled flight, nearly prevented the match from occurring, leading to criticism in Argentine media regarding the match's credibility.
