Argentina
have lost seven times against Bolivia, all on the field. There, the roar of
blowing Messi again was in Farias' throat.
“Playing at
Ernando Siles in La Paz is not like playing in any other city. There is no other
like it. ”
The stakes
are often reversed when playing at a stadium located at an altitude of 3,600
meters above sea level. Not just Argentina, most of the teams have been seen to
suffer there. For height, the visiting players have problems with normal
breathing. They can't play their normal game.
Brazil star Neymar, who drew 0-0 with Bolivia in Russia's World Cup qualifier three
years ago, commented that the game at La Pass was inhumane. The country's
players were seen taking oxygen at the end of the match. Argentina lost 2-0 to
Seba.
Farias wants
the opponent's suffering to continue at La Pass. Let his team take advantage of
the opportunity.

move on. They may say we are not good, it doesn't matter. At this height, we
want to eat the opponent's liver. ”
Argentina
are the first team to play in this 'risky' place in the World Cup qualifiers in
Qatar. Bolivia started the selection with a 5-0 defeat against Brazil, But the
reality is that they are not thinking about this rate. They went to play
in Brazil, leaving some important members of the team in La Paz for the
Argentina match.
Argentina,
who lost to Ecuador and started the selection, is now on an exceptional path.
The best way for teams visiting at such a high altitude is to get there very
close to the match's start. But the Argentines arrived there on Sunday,
with plans to spend two nights at La Paz before the match. According to
experts, this is not a good decision - the adverse effects of the condition on
health fall most after two or three days.
However,
considering the technical and psychological aspects, the decision can be
fruitful. By practicing at this height, players can get an idea of how much
they can do in this condition, how much they cannot do and how to adapt to the
match.
Only time
will tell whether Argentina has made the right decision to match in a hostile environment in the run-up. But one thing is clear, the performance of this
match will not match the idea of how ready Messi and his teammates are for
the World Cup in Qatar. Basically, the match should be a one-episode fight, the
Bolivian coach is the same.
