Lionel Messi said on Thursday he did not want to see Argentina's head coach, Diego Maradona, get sacked but also said it was just part of the game.
"Of course, I didn't want to see him to go. I believed he would stay. But that is just soccer," the Argentine superstar said during a news conference at the Shunjing Spa Hotel.
The striker also refused to predict the chances of Argentina winning the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
