Argentina A play Uruguay in Montevideo

In the first match of the 2008 South American Championship (Campeonato Sudamericano de Mayores),  Argentina hop across the River Plate to Montevideo and play Uruguay at Estadio Charrúa on Saturday.

As many of Argentina’s top players are still engaged in vital matches in France and because the Argentinian selectors have chosen a team to play Scotland, the team to play Uruguay is considerably weakened,
