World Cup: Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni said Tuesday that he was unsure when his team would be able to travel to Venezuela for their World Cup qualifier as Hurricane Milton approached Florida's west coast.

The category five storm swept across the Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday bound for Florida, where the reigning world champions have set up camp ahead of Thursday's clash in the northeastern Venezuelan city of Maturin, reports Xinhua.

"The game is important but the safety issue is even more important," Scaloni told reporters from Argentina's training base in Fort Lauderdale.
