The organizers of the World Cup informed in the document that security reinforcement was requested from the Qatari authorities for the match that starts at 22:00 local time (16:00 in Brasilia time). The entity fears the risk of fights between supporters.

At the entrance to the Lusail stadium, the security control is stricter than in the other games of this first phase, causing more queues than normal at the entrance to the Hospitality, the area of ​​​​the arena’s VIP boxes. The larger number of security officers is visible.

The game is dramatic for Argentina. If they lose, Messi’s team will be eliminated early from the World Cup, with no chance of going to the round of 16.
