A 3-6 World Cup qualifier, 55-year-old Argentine coach was dismissed! He led the team to lose three consecutive losses and missed the 2026 World Cup

On September 11, the Venezuelan Football Association officially confirmed that Batista no longer coaches the Venezuelan national team. The South American World Cup qualifiers have come to an end, and 6 teams that go directly to the World Cup and those that advance to the Intercontinental Playoffs have been confirmed, and Venezuela is not among them. Looking back at Venezuela's performance, it's a pity to perform in the final stage of the World Cup. The World Cup qualifiers were 3-6, and the 55-year-old Argentine coach was dismissed! Leading the team to lose three consecutive times missed the 2026 World Cup.

Before the end of the South American World Cup, six teams that were directly shortlisted for the World Cup had already been produced. The traditional three top three Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay all qualified for the World Cup in advance, and Ecuador, Colombia and Paraguay have also entered the World Cup. There is only one suspense in the final round of the South American World Cup, which is the playoff spot battle between Venezuela and Bolivia. Venezuela leads Bolivia by one point to take the initiative.

In the last round of the game, Venezuela faced Colombia at home, while Bolivia faced Brazil at home, and both Venezuela and Bolivia's opponents have qualified. In the game against Bolivia, Brazilian coach Ancelotti rotated the roster to a certain extent. Rafinia, Marginhos, Pedro, Martinelli and Estewan, who started in the last round, were all on standby on the bench, and Casemiro was suspended and unable to play. Brazil clearly retained its strength, and coupled with Bolivia's plateau home influence, Brazil was scored a penalty in the first half and lost 0-1, losing to Bolivia for the first time in 16 years.

If Venezuela defeats Colombia, then Venezuela will still beat Bolivia to advance to the playoffs. However, Venezuela's opponent Colombia is not ethical and has already qualified, and has also allowed main players such as J Ronaldo, Dias, and Sanchez to start. In addition, Venezuela is not good at it. With two leads in the first half, he was equalized twice and collapsed in the second half, losing the game 3-6. Colombia striker Suarez made a big four-game hit in this game, with J Ronaldo helping and Diaz also assisting for one assist.

Venezuela lost to Colombia, which took the game seriously, and was overtaken by Bolivia and missed the play-offs. It is still the only team among the 10 South American teams that have never entered the World Cup.

It is worth mentioning that in the fourth round of the World Cup final, Venezuela defeated its rival Bolivia 2-0, when Venezuela was 4 points more than Bolivia. In the last three rounds of the game, Venezuela 0-2 Uruguay, 0-3 Argentina, and Colombia 3-6, while Bolivia achieved a record of 2 wins and 1 loss, making a counterattack into the play-offs. Venezuela's Argentine coach Batista apologized to the people of Venezuela, and is now dismissed from get out of class sadly.
