Football News : Messi in, Neymar out of Argentina - Brazil

Lionel Messi will play for against Brazil in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday.

Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni confirmed on Monday that Messi, who has been out with a knee injury, will play in San Juan in a match that could earn the team a spot at next year's World Cup.

Messi played only 15 minutes in Argentina's 1-0 victory over Uruguay on Friday. He also missed two Paris Saint-Germain matches because of the injury.

Brazil has not won in Argentina since 2009.

In September, the qualifier between the teams was suspended after seven minutes of play because of a breach of COVID-19 protocols. FIFA has not yet announced what it will do with that match.
