Watch Chile Vs. Argentina Stream Live: South American International Friendly From L.A., Start Time, Preview
Two South American powerhouse teams, Chile and Argentina, are set to play for the first time since July 6, when they faced each other in the third-place match of the 2019 Copa America tournament, a match won by Argentina 2-1. La Albiceleste had lost to Chile in the previous two Copa America finals, per Fox Sports. This time, nothing is on the line but bragging rights as the teams take the action on the road to North America, where they will contest their latest rematch in Los Angeles, in a game that will stream live from the historic L.A. Coliseum.
To find out how to watch a live online stream of the Chile vs. Argentina international friendly match, see the streaming information at the bottom of this article. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. PT at the 78,467-seat Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum — more specifically, United Airlines Field at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum — in Los Angeles, California, on Thursday, September 5. That start time will be 10 p.m. ET.
In Chile, the start time is 10 p.m Chile Time, while on Argentina Time, the match gets underway at 11 p.m. In the United Kingdom, the start time will be 3 a.m. British Summer Time on Friday, September 6. And in China, kickoff arrives at 10 a.m. on Friday, China Standard Time.
Los Angeles area fans hoping to see Argentina’s Lionel Messi in action will be disappointed, however. Not only has a nagging calf injury kept the “little magician” out of the first three matches for his Spanish La Liga club, FC Barcelona, per 90Min, but Messi is also serving a suspension from international appearances as a result of his outspoken criticism of the Copa America officiating.
In fact, Messi would also be serving a red card match ban after he was sent off against Chile in the Copa America third-place match, as 101 Great Goals reported.
