Venezuela vs Guatemala: International Friendly Live Stream
Venezuela and Guatemala will face each other in an international friendly on Sunday at Rentschler Field in Connecticut. In the FIFA world rankings, there is a significant gap of 61 positions between the two nations. Venezuela is currently placed 55th, while Guatemala is positioned further back in the 116th spot.
Venezuela continued their unbeaten streak by securing a narrow 1-0 victory over Honduras in Washington DC. Yeferson Soteldo, the Santos winger, scored the decisive goal, marking his first international goal in over two years. Under new head coach Fernando Batista, who took charge in March, La Vinotinto has maintained their unbeaten start to 2023. Although Venezuela finished at the bottom of their CONMEBOL World Cup qualification group for the 2022 tournament, their recent impressive performance in friendly matches has given Batista hope for a positive start to their 2026 campaign in September.
Following consecutive defeats against Mexico and Trinidad & Tobago, Guatemala bounced back with an unexpected 1-0 victory over Costa Rica in Los Angeles. The experienced midfielder, Carlos Mejia, scored the lone goal of the match in the sixth minute, converting a well-executed counter-attack with a low-driven shot past goalkeeper Kevin Chamorro. The win over Costa Rica has provided a significant morale boost for Luis Fernando Tena’s team, who have had an inconsistent run of form in the past year, winning four, losing five, and drawing one of their last ten international matches. Guatemala has one more friendly match against Venezuela before they embark on their group-stage campaign in the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup, where their first match will be against Cuba in less than two weeks.
