This will be the eighth time the two teams lock horns. The first game took place on April 1, 1928, at the Field of Lumiar, Lisbon, in a preparation match ended tied at zero.
There followed four wins for "alvi-celestial", until June 29, 1972 Portugal won the only victory against the Argentines in Brazil's Independence Cup, a match played at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Under the command of José Augusto, Adolfo, Eusebio and Denis pointed out the goals of the Portuguese triumph 3-1.
More recently, the February 9, 2011, Argentina beat Team of Quinas, 2-1 in a preparation match that took place at the Stade de Genève, Switzerland, with Di Maria to put the South Americans ahead, Cristiano Ronaldo equalized for Portugal and, since the fall of the cloth, Messi converting a penalty to give the victory to his team.
The National Team has played twice at Old Trafford. And has fond memories of the "theater of dreams". World in 1966, to July 13, the walk to the bronze began in Manchester, with a 3-1 win against Hungary (marked José Augusto [2] and José Torres). Three days later, the Team of Quinas would vote the same stage in beating Bulgaria 3-0, with goals from Eusebio, Torres and an own goal from Vutsov.
