Argentina captain, Lionel Messi, has predicted that his side’s World Cup clash with England will be a special encounter.
Messi, who said he has never played against England before, also insisted that the World Cup semi-final against the Three Lions will be huge.
Speaking at his pre-match interview ahead of the Wednesday tie, the Inter Miami forward said via FIFA’s website, “It’ll be a special match because I’ve never played against England.
“They are also a great team, one of the world’s powerhouses, and it’s always wonderful to play against sides like that.
“It’s an encounter that promises to be huge, even more so in a World Cup semi-final.”
