Argentina have officially secured their place in the 2026 World Cup with a dominant 4-1 victory over Brazil in Buenos Aires. Goals from Julián Álvarez, Enzo Fernández, Alexis Mac Allister, and Giuliano Simeone sealed a resounding win, marking a celebration-worthy night at the Estadio Monumental.

  • Colombia let a 2-0 lead slip in a 2-2 draw against Paraguay.

  • Venezuela kept their World Cup dream alive with a 1-0 win over Peru, thanks to a Salomón Rondón penalty.

Argentina sit comfortably at the top of the table with 31 points, securing one of six automatic spots for South America in the 2026 tournament.
