The 4 will start cycling on May 15 from Cape Town to Doha, a journey that will cross 15 countries in two continents. Argentina are scheduled to play their first match at this year's tournament on Nov. 22 against Saudi Arabia.

Besides watching the matches, the trip aims to help the environment. Each kilometre travelled will be marked by the planting of a tree in the mountains of Cordoba, located about 600 kilometres northwest of the country's capital, Buenos Aires.
