Published: November 09, 2017Head Coach of Arsenal, Arsene Wenger, has said that he was pleased with the qualification of Argentina, together with Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi, for the 2018 World Cup.

''If you love football, you love to watch Messi. If you love football, you love Argentina as well.
