[Saba Sports News] Argentina beat Honduras 2-0 in a recent friendly fixture. The game took place at Kyle Field, an American football stadium situated on the campus of Texas A&M University in the United States, with a capacity of 102,733. A total of 91,102 spectators turned out for the match. Kyle Field has served as the home ground for the Texas A&M Aggies football team since 1904, and underwent concrete reconstruction starting in 1927. As of 2021, with its 102,733-seat capacity, it ranks as the largest stadium in the Southeastern Conference, the fourth-largest across the NCAA, the fourth-largest in the United States, the world’s sixth-largest non-racing stadium and the biggest non-racing venue in Texas. Its all-time attendance record stands at 110,633. During the second half, fans chanted in unison: “We want Messi! We want Messi!” Unfortunately, Lionel Messi remained on the bench and did not feature in the game.
The editor believes that this friendly match was intensely competitive. After the game, Messi joined other substitutes and players with limited playing time for extra training on the pitch. When Messi was leaving the stadium, many fans were still waiting in the stands. A young girl standing by the sidelines was lucky enough to get his autograph.
