The Argentina national team I needed a victory over Brazil on the last date of the Conmebol pre-Olympic that is held in Venezuela to be able to classify the Olympic Games of Parissomething that seemed complicated, but the miracle happened and the albiceleste snatched the ticket for Paris 2024 from the green and yellow.
Luciano Gondou fue the player who dressed as a hero, since at minute 78 He gave Argentina the pass with the goal that sIt made the final 1-0 of the match.
Along the way, the albicelestes qualified Paraguay, that even with a defeat he would be in the great tournament; However, hours later they took a 2-0 lead over Venezuela in the other home run match, securing the other available pass. With these results both the host and Brazil were left out of the Olympic Games.
In the stellar match between Argentina and Brazil the score threatened to be tied at zero and give way to the Canarinha, but the albiceleste did not give up and in the 78th minute Gondou appeared to head the long-awaited goal.
The classification of the final home run was with Paraguay as champion with 7 pointsfollowed by Argentina with five points and below Brazil, which remained at three, while Venezuela only obtained one unit.
Let us remember that this Pre-Olympic Tournament organized by Conmebol only awarded 2 tickets for Paris 2024, which already have an owner.
It was undoubtedly a very painful defeat for Brazil, the current two-time Olympic champion, who will not be able to defend their crown.
