The last time the Argentine national team lost had to go back to July 3, 2019, when they lost 2-0 to Brazil in the semi-finals of the Copa America and did not reach the final. But since then the team has been in unbeaten mode. Neither in the Subsequent Copa America matches or the friendly matches or the World Cup qualifiers, they did not lose again.
After losing the semi-finals two years ago, they finished third in the third-place final three or four days later with a 2-1 win over the Chilean national team thanks to goals from Aguero and Dybala. In the six subsequent friendly matches, the team won 3 and drew 3, and they swept across Mexico by 4 goals to beat Ecuador 6-1. In the confrontation with Brazil, Argentina defeated the Brazilian team led by Firmino and Jesus by Messi on a penalty, which was a revenge for an arrow.
They also scored two draws against two strong teams, Germany and Uruguay. Especially in the draw with Germany, there was no Messi on the scene, and the fringe of the national team, Arario, scored. This gives the Argentine national team more options for the front. After all, Messi and Aguero are not young now, and they also need fresh blood to top.
Throughout 2020, the Argentine national team has a record of 3 wins and 1 draw in four World Cup qualifiers. Whether it was an expedition to the Bolivian highlands or a battle in Peru, the team retreated completely. Full-back Nicolas Gonzalez, who plays for the Purple Lily, has played at a good level, scoring in both games.
In the 2021 competition, the Argentine national team won the Copa America championship with an unbeaten record. In the World Cup qualifiers they also maintained an unbeaten record of 3 wins and 3 draws. In the cup match, the team won 2 group games at an affordable 1-0, and after entering the knockout rounds, the team began to let go of its hands and feet, scoring 3 goals against Bolivia and Ecuador respectively. Relying on penalties, the team beat Colombia to reach the final. In the final, it was another narrow victory over Di Maria in the final, and the team broke through the fate to beat Brazil to win the trophy.
In the World Cup qualifiers, the mature Argentina played a good level. They beat Venezuela 3-1 away and beat Uruguay 3-0 at home. At present, the team has a record of 6 wins and 4 draws in 10 qualifiers, seven points ahead of fifth-place Colombia, and it is only a matter of time before the team advances to the final round of the World Cup in Qatar.
If you count the regular time of the game, the Argentine national team has gone unbeaten in 24 official matches. In these 24 games, they have a record of 15 wins and 9 draws, of which 12 have completed a clean sheet. The team has shown a more mature and upward side. In particular, their ability to win away from home in the Highlands and face the penalty spell is already a huge improvement.
One of the biggest point differences was their 6-1 home sweep over Ecuador. In 24 games, the team conceded 15 goals and the level of defense increased. Of course, this is not without regrets. In this year's World Cup, they were equalized by Colombia in the lead. The opponent finally scored with Borja's header, and the original victory was in vain.
In the following World Cup qualifiers, Argentina will play Peru at home. But next, they have to play Uruguay away and Brazil at home, which are two tough battles, and it is not known whether the team can completely retreat.
