FRANCE 98 – Diego Maradona: “I think Italy could win”

Comments from Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport, PARIS

“During this World Cup, I haven’t seen any spectacular matches up till now. In my view, no team has made any impact in terms of skill and the originality of their game, nor have there been any great revelations among the players. As regards the ITALY-FRANCE match today, Friday July 3, ITALY is the stronger, tactically speaking, and so I think they could win. As for ARGENTINA, it’s a team that has a hard time, but it’s also a team that wins. I’ve been asked whether I’d still like to play with the ARGENTINA side. No, I’m too old. It’s the turn of other players now.”
