ARGIE JORGE’S IN DREAMLAND

-

ARGENTINA boss Jorge Sampaoli may have hung onto his job by the skin of his teeth, thanks to Marcos Rojos’ late winner against Nigeria – but as a boy he had a dream he would win the World Cup for his country. Sampaoli (left), whose playing career was ended through injury at 19, said: “I can remember it clearly. In my dream, I was holding the World Cup for Argentina. “In my mind, I was wearing the Argentina shirt as a player, not a coach. Now, winning it as a coach is the most I can achieve.”
