Argentina hero Sergio Aguero warns old teammates of Mexico matchup in World Cup Group C

Retired Argentina striker Sergio Aguero has warned his old teammates of a potential disruption ahead of their upcoming game against Mexico on November 26.

The Albiceleste are undefeated in their last 10 games vs. Mexico, though the ex-Premier League star has said El Tri ‘is never easy’, while also urging Argentina not to take Saudi Arabia lightly in the team’s first match of the tournament.

“I think the first game against Saudi Arabia will be the most complicated because it’s our debut,” Agüero said in an interview with betting company. Effort.

“People think it’s easy, but it happened to us in 2014. The first stage seemed easy and in the end we had to beat Iran [1-0] in the last moments. It will be essential to beat Saudi Arabia to gain confidence, even if we should beat them.

“We have to have respect, and the same goes for Mexico, who never have it easy. They always try to put in their best performance ever against us. Mexico thrives against the big teams.’

The last competitive meeting between Mexico and Argentina was at the 2010 World Cup, when the latter won 3-1 in the round of 16.

And despite Agüero’s reverence for Argentina’s Group C rivals, Mexico has made a habit of competing against the big hitters on the world stage.

El Tri has not reached the quarterfinals of the tournament since 1986, with seven consecutive rounds of 16 exits since 1994 following that run.

However, after finishing second out of eight teams in the CONCACAF qualifiers, they will hope a squad featuring Napoli’s Hirving Lozano and Wolves striker Raul Jimenez can make some noise.

Meanwhile, Argentina is regarded as one of the favorites to win the World Cup, with Lionel Messi still excelling at the age of 35 and a strong group of attackers around him.

If Argentina falls short, Agüero has another team he’d like to see win – and it’s not his former home country, England.

“I’ve always had a soft spot for Spain,” he said.

“If it’s not my country that wins, I would go for La Roja or another country close to me. Or for a team that has never won it to win it. They may not always be the same. France, Germany, Brazil? I don’t want them. I prefer new ones.’

Argentina will start their tournament against Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, before playing Mexico on November 26 and the group stage vs. Poland ends.
