Costa Rica matches you. Panama does not: Panama City is 6:00pm. Miami is 7:00pm. Send the Panama and Miami times separately if those are the people watching with you.
Which date shows on the phone?
Tuesday, 6 October 2026 is the date in Managua and in Buenos Aires. You are earlier in the evening, not on a different day.
Label the alarm Nicaragua, and type 5:00pm. Managua is the city the title is talking about. The offset in the table is UTC−6. Buenos Aires is still 8:00pm, the same instant as 23:00 UTC. A number one hour later belongs to the other friendlies, which start at 9:00pm in Argentina, not to Benin.
Count it from the stadium if the table is not in front of you. 8:00pm in Buenos Aires is 23:00 UTC. Apply UTC−6 and you are back to 5:00pm in Managua. Do not add the Argentine hour on top of the local hour. That double count is how a single friendly turns into two alarms. Nicaragua gets one whistle, on Tuesday, 6 October 2026, and the teamsheet in Núñez uses the Buenos Aires date even when your phone is the only clock you can see.
Share the hour with the city attached. Managua on Tuesday, 6 October 2026 is 5:00pm. A reply that comes back with a different number is either a different zone or the other friendlies. Do not average the two. Nicaragua has one kickoff, and it is the one in the table.
Check the sum once more before you leave the page. Start at 23:00 UTC, apply UTC−6, and land on 5:00pm in Managua. If you land somewhere else, you started from 9:00pm in Buenos Aires. That is the other friendlies. Benin is 8:00pm at the Más Monumental. Nicaragua does not get a private whistle.
Does a TV listing change the kickoff?
No Nicaraguan channel has been named. Commentary before 5:00pm is not the kickoff. A Honduran listing at 5:00pm is a Honduran listing. The live stream note is on how to watch in Nicaragua. After the whistle, the Argentina vs Benin live score should stay empty until the referee starts the match.
The kick-off time tool uses the same 20:00 instant. For Nicaragua the line to keep is 5:00pm on Tuesday, 6 October 2026 (UTC−6).
