The outlook could be worse, but that doesn't make it any less complicated.
The agonizing draw of the
Argentine Under 23 National Team
against
Paraguay
left them with almost no margin for error facing the last match of the Final Phase of the Pre-Olympic: on Sunday they will face Brazil with the obligation of a victory if they want to qualify for Paris 2024.
It depends on other results, Argentina
.
Add
two points
in this Final Phase, while
Paraguay was left with 4
.
Firstly, the best scenario is that
Venezuela (1)
does not win this Thursday against Brazil (0)
, starting at 8:00 p.m.
If that happens, with victory next Sunday it will be enough
for those led by Javier Mascherano to advance to the Olympic event scheduled for next July in the capital of France.
If the winner this Thursday is
Venezuela
, it would be
the worst scenario
, because it would not only achieve victory in the classic against Brazil, but we would have to hope that
there is a winner between the host and Paraguay in the other match on the last date
.
If Venezuela and Brazil tie this Thursday, the outcome would be the same as for a victory for the Verdeamarelha: always understanding that there will be a victory for Argentina against its classic rival, the Albiceleste - Olympic gold medalist in Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008 - will be in Paris 2024.
