[#Football] Maradona: “Teams No Longer Fear Argentina.. Nigeria Disgraced Us”

Argentina legend Diego Maradona believes the Albiceleste have misplaced their fear thing and will have to depend on the have an effect of Lionel Messi to do well at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.

Maradona loved exceptional fulfillment with the Albiceleste, having captained the side at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico which they won and is regarded through many as the greatest footballer to have ever performed the game.

The South Americans who also made it to the final of the 1990 World Cup in Italy in which they lost 1-0 to Germany are drawn in Group D along side Nigeria, Croatia and Iceland.

The two-time world champions enjoyed a a success qualifying campaign and tops the South America zone of the qualifiers.

They are also some of the favourites to raise the name having reached the very last in 2014, but Maradona is worried the team not command respect from opposing groups like in the past.

“The problem with Argentina is that we don’t have proper defence and midfield. People communicate approximately Lucas Biglia but he isn’t the great for me. Unfortunately they’re usually afraid to say it,” the Napoli legend stated in an interview with diariopopular.Com.Ar.

“Today, except for Lionel Messi, teams don’t fear Argentina again. Look at the last game in opposition to Nigeria, they almost scored 8 goals against us. In my time you recognize what passed off whilst we played them.

“Jorge Sampaoli is lucky we have Messi inside the team due to the fact while he’s in top shape he can cover the mistakes of others.

“If he hits top shape in Russia, then we’ve got 60 percentage of becoming the champion with others complementing his attempt.”
