Lionel Messi has proudly declared that this Argentina side will "fight" anyone in their way of a third World Cup crown later this year in Qatar.
The Paris Saint-Germain star was speaking in the wake of La Albiceleste's 3-0 win over Italy in the first edition of the Finalissima - a contest that sees the winners of the Copa America take on the winners of the European Championship in a battle of the continents.
Anticipating his country's World Cup prospects, Messi explained: "We keep growing, that's what we are looking for. We are working on a day by day basis in order to improve further. We continue to say that we are not the top favourites, but we will put up a fight against anyone, because this group is hopeful, it has clear goals.
