We won’t get the anticipated Neymar and Lionel Messi match-up, but we will still get two of football’s biggest powerhouses when Brazil take on Argentina at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The match is scheduled to kick-off at 8:05pm (AEST) on Friday, June 9.
While Brazil left Neymar out of their squad, Argentina are still at full strength and will ensure this is potentially the biggest game played in Australia.
For Brazil, they will have a second game before returning home, against the Socceroos next Tuesday night.
