Argentina Soccer Team
The Argentina national football
team is one of the most successful national football teams,
having won two World Cups and one Olympic Title. Argentina
and Uruguay hold the record for the most international matches
played against two countries, there have been 161 matches
played against each other since 1901. The first match against
Uruguay was the first official international match to be played
outside Britain. (Although Canada and the United States played
two internationals in 1885 and 1886, neither match is considered
official; Canada did not play an official international until
1904 and the USA did not play one until 1916.)
Argentina has appeared in four World Cup finals,
including the first final in 1930, which they lost 4-2 to
Uruguay. They won the final at their next attempt in 1978,
beating the Netherlands 3-1 and also won in 1986, a 3-2 victory
over West Germany. Their last final was in 1990, which they
lost 1-0 to West Germany.
Argentina have been very successful in Copa
América, winning it eleven times and also winning the
'extra' South American Championships in 1941, 1945 and 1946.
