As three-time World Cup winners and 16-time Copa America winners, the Albiceleste are one of the greatest national teams in football.
Consistently ranked among the top 10 teams in the world, the Argentina national side is one of four sides to have won at least three World Cup titles.
Nicknamed La Albiceleste (The White and Sky Blues), the Argentines have played in six World Cup finals, won 16 Copa America titles, one Confederations Cup, and the U-23 team won gold at the 2004 and 2008 Olympics.
In addition to the team's success, Argentinian football is well-known through its superstars, most notably the late Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi.
