On the 14th date of the South American Qualifiers heading to the Qatar 2022 World Cup, the Argentine National Team led by Lionel Scaloni will receive the already classified to Brazil, looking for a victory that will leave him on the verge of obtaining his ticket to the World Cup.
The national team will have the return to ownership of its figure and captain Lionel messi, who entered a few minutes in the victory against Uruguay by 1 to 0 and who will seek to modify his negative record against “Verdeamarelha”, despite having scored a good number of goals.
It is that acting for the Major the best player on the planet won five, lost six and drew one among the 13 historic matches against the classic rival, recalling that it remains to be known what will be the decision of FIFA in relation to the last match between them played that went 0-0 and that was suspended after local authorities interrupted the match.
Nevertheless, the six goals scored against the Brazilians They mark that Rosario’s crack converts him once every two crashes, a more than acceptable average, although they do not translate into favorable results, at least in the historical record that began in 2006.
That first commitment was in a friendly played at the Emirates Stadium. That afternoon in London Alfio Basile’s team was beaten 3-0 and the jewel of Barcelona, who jumped from the start and played the 90 minutes, failed to shake the nets.
The first two commitments were defeat 3 to 0, the first in the year just mentioned, at the Emirates Stadium, and the second in the remembered final of the Copa América 2007.
The third was the first and only draw: 0-0 as a visitor for the South American Qualifiers towards the World Cup in South Africa 2010. In the second leg of that classification, Argentina fell 3-1 at the Gigante de Arroyito, where the “10” could not appear to solve the problems for the team led by Maradona.
In their fifth match, a friendly played at the end of 2010 in Doha, came the first cry: agonizingly, the “10” invented a masterful move from right to left and defined crusader to give Argentina the victory 1-0.
The most outstanding match of the “Pulga” individually against Brazil was undoubtedly that of New Jersey, in its sixth against this rival. Messi signed a triplet in the Argentine victory 4-3, with the last goal, to turn history around, remembered for the work of art that was born in the right sector at the height of the half court. Unforgettable.

For the Qualifiers towards the 2018 World Cup in Russia,Messi faced Brazil again, this time at Mineirao, with another 3-0 against, but was reunited with the victory in the 2017 friendly played in Australia, with both Gabriel Mercado, in the team led by Sampaoli.
On November 15, 2019, they met again in another friendly in Saudi Arabia. On a penalty, he scored the only goal of the clash and reached his fifth victory against Brazil.
The most important match against Brazil and one of the most significant of your career?? On July 10, 2021, the 28-year drought without titles for the Argentine National Team was broken with 1-0 to Brazil in the final of the Copa América 2021 played in the Maracana. Leo couldn’t score (the goal was from Di María), but it didn’t matter much.
