Since Diego Maradona won the World Cup in 1986 and then his visits to India twice ignited the love and support of people in Bangladesh and India. The Argentina team has already visited both India and Bangladesh once back in 2011 when Lionel Messi played his first matches as a captain in the countries. The Argentina star along with the rest of the team were overwhelmed by the love they received in these countries.
When Leo Messi was asked about his visit and the extraordinary support he received, he said, “The last time I stepped into India, I was overwhelmed with the warmth and passion this country showered on me. India left its famously lasting impression and with that lingering memory, my family and I have always wanted to develop an association with the country.”
Bangladesh vs Argentina next?😭 I won't accept anything less than 10 goals from Messi.
