Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni has stated that he is not concerned about fatigue or his team's performances as they prepare to face England in the World Cup semi-final. The holders, led by 39-year-old Lionel Messi, have battled through the knockout rounds, including extra time victories over Cape Verde and Switzerland. 'We are in good shape and we really can't wait,' Scaloni told reporters. 'This is a World Cup semi-final and our hopes are intact.'

Historical Rivalry

The upcoming match renews a historical rivalry between Argentina and England, most famously marked by the 1986 quarter-final where Diego Maradona scored the infamous 'Hand of God' goal. Scaloni acknowledged the significance of that match but emphasized that the current focus is solely on football. 'This is a football game, that's all,' he said.

Challenges Ahead

Scaloni also recognized the challenge posed by England's star players, Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane, who have scored 12 of their team's 13 goals at the tournament. 'They are two great players, among the best in the world,' he said. Despite the tough route to the semi-final, Scaloni remains confident in his team's ability to perform. 'I can't reproach my players. Whether we are tired or not I don't care. This is a World Cup semi-final.'
