Image result for messi

Argentina's captain, Lionel Messi, has promised to hike 65 kilometers from his hometown, Rosario, to San Nicolás, in case Albiceleste wins the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

He told TyC Sports: "If we win the World Cup, I promise to walk from Rosario to San Nicolás."


Messi admitted that Argentina has almost become "crazy" while struggling to get the pass to the finals.

Albiceleste earned a spot in the World Cup in the last round of the CONEMBOL beating Ecuador 3-1, while Peru and Colombia drew 1-1.

He was a bit too close for comfort, especially when Ecuador was initially 1-0 in this match before a Messi hat trick ruined them.

He added: "I thought we would qualify before, I thought we would win against Venezuela and Peru.


"We could not stop to qualify for the World Cup Ecuador scored in the end, it was so much for me but also lucky not to be crazy."

Luke Shaw fears for Manchester United career after José Mourinho fallout

Shaw does not see a return in the first XI Unhappy Mourinho with an attitude goal Shaw thinks he did everything he could Luke Shaw's relationship with José Mourinho has been very limited. Mourinho considers himself dissatisfied with Shaw's attitude, even though the player believes he has everything he needs to prove himself. The fears of 22 years will again bring a significant opportunity for the first team. Shaw was in the United States, where he had his own training while recovering from an ankle ligament injury. The defender, who made his debut in England in 2014, intended to return to Mourinho's plans, but the manager did not feel it. Shaw has only played twice this season, replacing the Carabao Cup. The second of these appearances came in Tuesday's 2-0 victory in Swansea City. Mourinho, who preferred to play Axel Tuanzebe, has a 19 year old who has not played this role yet and has already made five appearances in his career. Shaw is considering ...
