The Argentine men’s futsal team qualified for the semi-finals of the World Cup in Colombia organised by Fifusa. Yesterday, the national team won 3-1 against Spain in a very tough match and is now in the next round of the ecumenical championship.
The first half was uneventful. Both teams tried to impose their game, but they were unable to break the tie and everything remained level. After the break, the score was opened with a goal from Mendoza’s Gaspar Batiz after one minute of play.
After the initial blow, the Spaniards reacted and tied the match momentarily. Despite the complications, the Albiceleste showed their potential and ended up scoring the remaining two goals through Fabián Lauletta and Diego Vargas, who sealed the victory and their passage to the semi-finals.
After this hard-fought victory against the Europeans, Argentina took another important step in its quest for the title. Tomorrow it will play the semi-final of the championship against Brazil (19:30 Argentina time), the South American classic that will have an extra spice this Saturday in search of the decisive match.
In the Argentine team, José “Piru” Carrizo is part of the squad, who in the Corrientes Indoor Soccer Association defends the colors of the Marmoleria team.
