Argentina are officially headed to the 2026 FIFA World Cup after securing a dominant 4–1 victory over Brazil. Argentina and Brazil met for the 115th time to close out the March international break. La Albiceleste came into the match only needing a draw to qualify for the upcoming FIFA World Cup while the Seleção sought their first win against Argentina since 2019.

More than the negative result, as Argentina qualified for the World Cup earlier in the day and then beat them convincingly, Brazil were defeated also for the way they played, as the team coached by Lionel Scaloni showed to be much better at this stage.
