The Argentine coach took some criticism after his last defeat with Venezuela
–
This Friday the closing of matchday 17 of the South American Qualifiers between the Argentine National Team and the Venezuelan National Team was held at La Bombonera in Buenos Aires. Those led by Lionel Scaloni won 3-0 against José Pekerman’s team.
The current champion of the Americas dominated the match with pleasure both in the game and on the scoreboard, and did not suffer too much against the Vinotinto team. Nicolás González, Ángel Di María and Lionel Messi were in charge of scoring for the locals.
Although it was difficult for the albiceleste cast to reach the first goal that González scored, and took the 1-0 lead to rest. The complement of the match was dominated in a great way by Argentina, and a great goal from Di María followed by a goal from Messi, with a bitten shot, ended up tilting the balance in favor of the locals.
On the part of José Pékerman and his time in the Vinotinto, the match against Argentina meant his third match directed in this team, after the victory against Bolivia and the defeat against Uruguay.
Although the Argentine coach has confirmed on multiple occasions that his process will be measured for the 2026 World Cup, he received some criticism on social networks, and some even dared to ask for his resignation from the Venezuelan team.
The next challenge for Pékerman and his Vinotinto will be when they face a Colombian National Team next Tuesday that still has hopes of qualifying for the playoffs and that Venezuela will have the opportunity to be their executioner.
