Austria midfielder, Konrad Laimer has named Argentina the best team at the ongoing FIFA World Cup tournament.
The Bayern Munich star also named Argentina captain Lionel Messi as the best player in the world.

“Argentina are the reigning world champions, so they are the best, and Messi is the best player in the world,” Laimer said.
“It’s always great to play against players of that calibre and see how you measure up against them.
“In the end, you see just how good you really are. Argentina are a special team, with an incredible amount of quality.
“Of course, we want to show what we can do too, but the other matches will be just as important if we want to progress.”
