Lionel Messi will “drive” Argentina to World Cup glory in his battle to become the greatest of all time.
That is the view of Argentina defender Nicolás Tagliafico ahead of their semi final with Croatia at the Lusail Stadium. Argentina superstar Messi, 35, is just two games away from lifting the trophy for the first time in his glittering career.
Lyon left back Tagliafico, who is set to start against Croatia, said: “He's our captain, he's our leader, he drives us, he motivates. When we go out on the pitch and know he's with us, it motivates us. We're going to have to suffer - to live it, but also enjoy it.”
