Lionel Messi is back in the Argentina squad, and this probably should haunt the Venezuelan team every moment before the teams face off in the International friendly day after tomorrow.

The Argentinian attack might be ageing but the likes of Lionel Messi, Sergio Aguero and Gonzolo Higuain under the same roof, is probably the best International attacking trio in the world right now.

There are some other names in the Argentinian attack too which probably will be handed the mantle after the above mentioned trio retire - Paulo Dybala, Mauro Icardi and Lautaro Martinez.

Venezuela have only one famous name in the squad, namely Jose Salomon Rondon who has been a hero in the recent weeks for Newcastle United. He is a potential threat if Argentina face problems at the back.

There are two things which makes this tie a worth watch.

Firstly and interestingly, Argentina has failed to secure a win in their last two meetings against Venezuela, having drawn both the games. And secondly, Lionel Messi is very much back to the squad which should boost every football fan's heartbeat at the moment.
