"From our side, we want to give our best and I think we can make it, if we are all right. We have ambitions. Our opening match against Korea is the most decisive one. If we win it, then we will show what we can do," he said.
"In a World Cup, there are no easy draws. However, Argentina are the big favourites not just to win the group but also to fight for the trophy until the end.
"On the other hand, Nigeria are doing better and better every time they reach the World Cup finals. As for South Korea, they too pose considerable threats as opponents. They have very fast and dangerous players and let's not forget what they managed in 2002," he concluded.
