Argentina vs Uruguay at the World Cup

Both these teams took part in the inaugural edition of the FIFA World Cup back in 1930, and they even clashed in the Final. Hosts Uruguay emerged victorious on the day, becoming the first-ever World Cup winners. La Celeste became two-time world champions in 1950 after coming from behind to defeat Brazil by two goals to one.

Argentina would only clinch their maiden world title in 1978, on home soil, with a 3-1 victory over the Netherlands. La Albiceleste celebrated with more than 71,000 spectators packed inside the modern-day Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires.

In 1986 Argentina equalled Uruguay’s tally of two World Cup successes, largely thanks to the prowess of Diego Maradona. It took another 36 years but the Argentinians eventually laid claim to their third triumph on the world stage. Lionel Messi guided his country to the promised land with a narrow win against France in the 2022 World Cup Final.

Argentina vs Uruguay Head-to-Head

These two teams contested the first-ever FIFA World Cup Final, held in Uruguay, as the home side ran out 4-2 winners. The nations have since shared a pitch dozens of times in World Cup qualifiers, though meetings at the finals tournament have become few and far between.

More than half a century went by before Argentina & Uruguay next faced one another at the World Cup in 1986. They crossed paths in the Round of 16, as La Albiceleste earned a slender 1-0 win on their way to lifting the World Cup Trophy two weeks later.
