In today's episode of "By The Hand of The Ten" show, Argentina legend Diego Maradona takes a closer look at his country's squad as they get set to kick off their Group D campaign against Iceland later today. Maradona focuses on Lionel Messi and the huge expectations on the 30-year-old in Russia.
Argentina were defeated by Germany in the 2014 World Cup’s final, but Messi now has another chance - perhaps his last chance - to emulate his idol Maradona by lifting the trophy.

Maradona said that Messi and Sergio Augero should be playing at their best in Russia. Augero is right behind Messi in terms of most international goals for Argentina both should get good chances to score in the tournament. If Messi and Augero play together, they should create good results, predicted Maradona.
