They will rely on key players such as Argentina's World Cup winner Lautaro Martinez, Nicolo Barella, goalkeeper Yann Sommer, and Pavard. Tournament regulations state that if the match ends in a draw, two 15-minute extra periods will be played. If the score remains tied after extra time, the winner will be decided by a penalty shootout.
