Argentina head coach, Lionel Scaloni, has warned his team ahead of their World Cup Round of 32 clash against Cape Verde on Friday.
Scaloni issued the warning ahead of his post-match press conference after Argentina defeated Jordan 3-1 in their final group match at the weekend.
According to him, the African side gave the likes of Spain, Uruguay and Saudi Arabia a hard time during the group stage.
“They’re a very good team, and they make it very difficult for all opponents,” Scaloni said of Cape Verde.
“But they’re a very tough team to beat. It would not be true for me to say they’re not strong, because they really are.
“They’ve already given Spain, Uruguay, and Saudi Arabia a hard time, and these are facts. You’ve got to be even more careful in this World Cup.”
