The Osasuna stadium will host the match on June 5 that will serve as preparation for the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

First it was going to be played on the pitch of Real Sociedad (San Sebastián), then at Deportivo Alavés (Vitoria) and now at Osasuna (Pamplona). The friendly between the Argentine National Team and Estonia on June 5 changed venue again and this seems to be the definitive one.

Although there is still no official announcement, the authorities of the Argentine Football Association are closing the details for what will be the match with the European country after playing the Finalissima against Italy, on June 1 at Wembley.

Although it is not so close to Bilbao (150 kilometers away), where Lionel Scaloni's team is staying, the El Sadar stadium with capacity for 25,000 spectators is the most satisfying at this point. Of course, the coaching staff has not yet defined the transfer of the delegation.

The match between the Argentina National Team and Estonia will serve as a filming for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, especially for players who are not regular starters. The rival is ranked 110th in the FIFA ranking and failed to qualify in the UEFA Qualifiers.
