Retro Argentina Home Shirt 1996
In 1996, Argentina, managed by Daniel Passarella, competed at Copa América in Uruguay and in preparation for the 1998 World Cup qualifiers. The squad featured veterans such as Gabriel Batistuta, Diego Simeone, Ariel Ortega, and Roberto Ayala, blending experience with emerging talent like Juan Sebastián Verón. Argentina reached the Copa América final, defeating teams such as Mexico and Brazil along the way, but lost 2–1 to hosts Uruguay in the final. The campaign showcased Argentina’s attacking strength, particularly through Batistuta, and highlighted tactical organisation under Passarella, while also revealing defensive inconsistencies that would be addressed in preparation for future tournaments.
