The match, corresponding to the first date of Group A, will be played from 6:00 p.m. at the Nilton Santos stadium in Rio de Janeiro, with arbitration by Colombian Wilmar Roldán, assisted by his compatriots Alexander Guzmán and Jhon Leon from the line and Jhon Ospina in the VAR cabin.
The premiere "albiceleste" can be seen on the screens of Public TV, TyC Sports and DirecTV Sports and also on their respective streaming platforms: Cont.ar, TyC Sports Play and DirecTV GO.
The 47th.
The edition of the Copa América represents a new illusion for Argentina to cut once its greatest drought in the history of the tournament, 28 years, and its captain, Lionel Messi, can achieve what he long deserves: lift a trophy with the senior team.
Rosario, the Argentine team's historical top scorer, was repeatedly denied that possibility since his debut in the main team in 2005: he lost three Copa América finals (2007, 2015 and 2016) and the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Leo, however, was able to be crowned Under 20 world champion in Holland 2005 and win the gold medal at the Beijing Olympics with the Under 23, three years later.
In this Copa América 2021 he will seek to fill the glory box with the senior team and at the same time become the footballer with the most games played with the Argentine jersey.
At the moment it has 144 presences and is only three behind Javier Mascherano, so if there are no inconveniences, it will meet that objective on the last date of Group A against Bolivia.

The trans-Andean duel with Chile has awakened a special rivalry since 2015 when "La Roja", then directed by Jorge Sampaoli, won its first South American title by defeating Argentina on penalties at the National Stadium in Santiago.
A year later the same story was repeated but at MetLife in New Jersey, United States, with another Argentine at the Chilean bank: Juan Antonio Pizzi.
That night was remembered for the subsequent resignation of Messi, frustrated at the impossibility of celebrating with the "Albiceleste".
In 2019 they met again for third place in the Copa América in Brazil and the victory went to Argentina (2-1), who ended the match without the "Flea" due to his expulsion after a spicy cross with defender Gary Medel.
10 days ago they were also measured at the Estadio Único Madre de Cities in Santiago del Estero (1-1) for the South American Qualifiers for the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

In relation to that match, DT Lionel Scaloni will make at least four modifications, since there will be neither Juan Foyth nor Lucas Ocampos - marginalized from the summoned list -, Cristian Romero - injured - nor Ángel Di María, who lost his place in the later match against Colombia in Barranquilla.
Chile comes to debut with an absence of weight and a vital return.
Alexis Sánchez, author of the tying goal in Santiago del Estero, will not be able to play due to a muscle injury;
While Arturo Vidal, another member of the "Golden Generation", will return to the team after missing the Qualifiers for contracting Covid-19.
The trans-Andean team recently started a new technical cycle under the leadership of Uruguayan Martín Lasarte, who for the moment registers 1-1 with Argentina and another disappointing equality with Bolivia, at home, by the same score.
The selected Albiceleste, 14 times champion of the South American tournament, will play the second date with Uruguay, on Friday 18 in Brasilia, and Chile -winner 2015 and 2016- will face the same day with the Bolivians in Cuiabá.
