Barcelona star Lionel Messi admits he dreams of leading his country to World Cup glory in Brazil next year.
The Argentine international wants to go all the way with the Albiceleste in 2014 and add international honours to his
plethora of achievements at club level
Argentina beat Paraguay 5-2 on Tuesday evening to seal qualification for next summer's tournament, and the
Barcelona star is eager to follow in the footsteps of Diego Maradona and steer la Albiceleste to their first world title
since 1986.
"I dream of winning the World Cup. We all do in Argentina. But there is still a long way to go," Messi told reporters after
his side's away victory over Paraguay.
"We got what we wanted, but it was difficult to play here. The most important thing was to qualify as soon as possible.
"We want to continue like this and we want to keep winning."
Messi also briefly reacted to rumours that Barcelona have asked the Argentine football association (Afa) to leave him
out of the squad for their remaining two World Cup qualifiers, and stressed that he always wants to play for the
national team.
"I don't know anything about that. I always want to play for Argentina."
