Argentina play Burkina Faso in a friendly, with Olé reporting the match schedule and where viewers can watch it live. The fixture has been overshadowed by the state of the visiting squad, which arrived in Argentina only five hours before the game was due to start, according to Página|12.
The organizer of Argentina's friendlies addressed the situation in a statement, as reported by La Nación. Clarín reports that the organizer explained why the African national team's leading players withdrew and how a replacement side was assembled at short notice.
The disruption left Burkina Faso preparing with a squad put together in a hurry rather than the lineup originally expected. Coverage of the match includes a fan vote for Argentina's standout performer, run by TyC Sports.
What to watch next: whether the hastily arranged Burkina Faso team takes the field as planned and how Argentina approach a friendly whose buildup has been defined by logistics rather than football.
