Qatar vs Argentina: Live stream, TV channel, team news and kick off time for Copa America 2019 match
IT’S do or die for Argentina as they yet again have to get things done the hard way to avoid a group stage elimination at a tournament.
Only a victory against invited Asian champions Qatar is likely to be enough for Lionel Messi and co after a 2-0 loss against Colombia and a 1-1 draw with Paraguay.
But nobody is more experienced than the Albiceleste in this situation, having left it to the last day to both qualify for the World Cup and get out of their group last summer.
The Qataris, who have impressed as guest entrants, find themselves level on points with the Argentines, and one goal ahead of them as they look to win an improbable Asian Cup-Copa America double.
What time does Qatar vs Argentina kick off?
This Copa America clash will take place on Sunday, June 23.
It will kick off at 8pm UK time – that is 4pm in Brazil.
The match will be held at Arena do Gremio in Porto Alegre.

What TV channel is Qatar vs Argentina on and can I live stream it?

What is the team news?
Argentina boss Lionel Scaloni is under pressure to pick Sergio Aguero and Lautaro Martinez in a front two after the formula worked well in the second half against Paraguay.
And he responded positively to the idea in his press conference, saying: “When you play with a lot of offensive players you create uncertainty in the opponent.
“That could be one of the keys. With players of this calibre, the closer they are to the area, the better.”
If that were to be the case then Watford midfielder Roberto Pereyra is likely to miss out.
Tottenham’s Juan Foyth could also replace German Pezzella at centre-back with Renzo Saravia returning at right-back ahead of Milton Casco.
