It’s Not All About Messi

Gabriel Heinze has told the opposition by stopping Lionel Messi they will not stop the force of Argentina, insisting Diego Maradona’s side are no one-man team.

The current FIFA World Player of the Year, comes to South Africa on the back of a magnificent season with Barcelona and is expected to be one of the stars in South Africa.

“Everybody expects something whenever Lionel touches the ball, that’s normal, he’s the best in the world and is in his best moment, but Argentina do not depend on him but on the group,” said Marseille man Heinze.

“It’s incredible what he does but he is one more player and he can make mistakes. “I believe it’s the team that makes you win these very difficult tournaments.”

Argentine play Nigeria on this upcoming Saturday afternoon, with fellow Group B teams Korea Republic and Greece playing also on 12th June. Argentina beat Nigeria by one goal to nil in the 2008 Olympic final in 2008.
