In one of the biggest ever football events to come to Australia, South American powerhouses Brazil and Argentina will do battle at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. This is The Roar‘s ultimate guide to watching the match on TV and streaming it online.
The game is scheduled to kick-off at 8:05pm (AEST) on Friday, June 9.
The Brazilians have been blasted in the media for leaving Neymar out of their squad, but with Argentina at full strength and Lionel Messi leading the charge, there is still going to be an incredible amount of talent on the pitch.
Almost 100,000 fans are expected to pack the MCG for the fixture, with Australia then set to play Brazil at the same venue next Tuesday.
