The Argentine national team has accumulated almost $80 million in prize money over the past three years, a figure that could increase this Sunday if they triumph over Colombia in the Copa América final at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
The Argentine National Team Has Earned Nearly $80 Million in Prizes
The successful cycle of the "Scaloneta" has been accompanied by significant financial gains since they won the 2021 Copa América in Brazil.
Back then, their 1-0 victory over Brazil in the Maracanã final earned them around $14 million: $10 million for winning the title, $2 million for participating, and $2 million for advancing past the group stage and quarterfinals.
A year and a half later, their victory at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, after defeating France in the penalty shootout in Doha, brought them $42 million, along with an extraordinary $10 million prize awarded by CONMEBOL "to incentivize and support South American football."
Most recently, Lionel Scaloni's team has secured $11 million by reaching the Copa América final.
