Argentina Names Strong Olympic Team
Many players have talked about wanting to take part in this summer’s Olympic games, but injury and club commitment have made actual commitments rare. That’s why today’s announcement by Argentina is noteworthy. Argentina has named as strong an Olympic team as can reasonably be imagined.
Lionel Messi was named to the team. Javier Mascherano and Kún Agüero are there, as is Juan Roman Riquelme, surprisingly.
I still waver as to whether I should care about the Olympics, but it other qualifiers were to name take the tournament as seriously as Argentina is apparently doing, I’m in.
