JAKARTA The first test for the Argentine national team to win the Indonesian U-17 World Cup 2023 as their inaugural title is against Senegal in the first matchday of Group D.

The match will take place at Si Jalak Harupat Stadium, Bandung, West Java, Saturday, November 11, 2023. Kick off or kick off the start of the match at 19.00 WIB.

For this year's edition, Argentina's chances of winning are quite big. Diego Placente's team comes with talented talents, including Claudio Echeverri, nicknamed the Little Devil.

Although they have participated in this event 14 times, Albiceleste has never experienced the U-17 World Cup title. Their best achievement before this was to finish third three times in 1991, 1993, and 2005, respectively.

The U-17 World Cup is the only trophy that Argentina has yet to lift. In fact, they are three-time champions in the World Cup and five-time FIFA U-20 World Cup winners.

Trophy dari Indonesia akan melengkapi rangkaian kemenangan mereka di semua level di ajang internasional. Si Setan Kecil termasuk salah satu pemain yang bisa menjadi fokus untuk pemeriksaan tersebut.

Echeverri is a smart player and has excellent dribble skills in one-on-one situations. He has made his debut with River Plate and is now Argentina's hope.

Argentina debuted at the U-17 World Cup in its debut edition in 1985 and has only been absent in four tournaments since then. In total they have played 65 games in this competition.

On the other hand, Senegal is also present with their mainstay player Amara Diouf. This player has become the youngest international player in Senegal.

Diouf made his debut for the senior national team at the age of 15 years 94 days in September 2023. At that time, he entered as a substitute in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against Rwanda which ended in a 1-1 draw.

In addition, Diouf looked stunning during the U-17 AFCON campaign. He scored five goals to finish as top scorer of the competition while breaking the goal record in a tournament edition previously held by Nigerian superstar Victor Osimhen.

The 2023 U-17 World Cup will be Senegal's second appearance at the U-17 World Cup after their debut occurred in 2019. At that time they qualified for the group stage before being eliminated in the round of 16 after losing against Spain.
