    Digital DeskArgentina's national football team, captained by the great Lionel Messi, will visit Kerala next year, marking the start of a historic football event, according to Sports Minister V. Abdurahiman. Keralan merchants will provide funding for the game, which will be played with full support from the state government, demonstrating the people's intense love of football.

    Argentina recently defeated Peru 1-0 in the South American World Cup qualifiers. In the 78th minute, Lautaro Martinez scored the game's lone goal with an incredible volley after Messi's flawless pass. With 25 points from 12 games, Argentina continued on its dominant unbeaten streak and topped the CONMEBOL standings, even when it was not at its best.

    Meanwhile, it was 1-1 to end the game between Uruguay and Brazil. Uruguay's Federico Valverde scored the opening goal, but Brazil responded with a strong volley from Gerson. Brazil failed to score the winner in the game's late stages, including a very good chance for Gabriel Martinelli. With 18 points, Brazil will now play in fifth place and under Colombia as the latter team lost unexpectedly to Ecuador.
