Argentina national team midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has weighed in on the upcoming World Cup semi-final clash against England. The two nations famously met in the 1986 World Cup quarter-finals, a match Argentina won thanks to a masterful performance from Diego Maradona, including his infamous "Hand of God" goal.

"We all want to play in this match; it's incredibly important. The fact that we're playing against England doesn't change anything for me. They also have top-class players. I hope we can replicate what happened in 1986. But what Diego did is almost impossible. Only Leo is capable of something like that," Mac Allister stated.
