Notably, the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) on Thursday said that the World Cup qualifier match between Iran and Qatar was being moved to a neutral venue in United Arab Emirates owing to security concerns. For the uninitiated, Iran had launched 180 ballistic missiles at Israel earlier this month and Israel had vowed payback for the attack, increasing the hostilities between the two countries.
Argentina held, Brazil cruise in latest contest:
In Lionel Messi‘s comeback game, Argentina were held to a draw by Venezuela on Thursday. Messi, who missed Argentina’s matches in September due to injury, looked to have given the 2022 champions another win with a free-kick against Venezuela, but a strong performance from the home side kept them in the game.
Despite the setback, the defending champions look set to book their place at the 2026 Fifa World Cup finals. Meanwhile, after a shaky start to their qualifying campaign, Brazil finally got their campaign back on track with a 2-1 win over Chile on Thursday.
The win lifted Brazil to fourth in the standings on 13 points. For comparison, Argentina are on 21 points and Uruguay are on 15.
