The tickets for the Argentina open training session at the Al Nahyan Stadium in Abu Dhabi are on sale and starts from Dh25 only.

The residents of the United Arab Emirates and the tourists who are visiting the country before the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 can watch Lionel Messi and his teammates including Angel Di Maria from Juventus, Lautaro Martinez from Inter Milan, and Julian Alvarez from Manchester City train.

The General Secretary of the Abu Dhabi Sports Council, Aref Al Awani said, “Argentina are one of the favorites to lift the World Cup in December and many other team’s players have been quite open about this potentially being their last major tournament.”

“We are keen to ensure all those who missed out on tickets for the match with the UAE still have a chance to watch the players up close as they prepare in Abu Dhabi ahead of their campaign for a third World Cup title.” He continued, “For this reason, prices for the open training are very accessibly priced.”

If Argentina avoids defeat against UAE and does not lose their opening World Cup match against Saudi Arabi on November 22, 2022, then they will match Italy’s record international unbeaten run.
