Former Brazil striker, Fred, has said he is desperate for his country to play Argentina in the semi-finals of the 2022 World Cup.
According to Fred, he wants Lionel Messi to be left in tears.
Both South American nations are preparing for their quarter-final ties on Friday.
Brazil faces Croatia first, before Argentina’s clash with Holland at 8pm (WAT).
Should they both win their matches, the two great rivals will battle it out for a place in the World Cup final next week.
Fred, who scored 18 goals in 39 caps for Brazil, is eager for the encounter to happen.
The Brazilian network TV Globo reports that he said, “I want a Brazil-Argentina semifinal.
“I want chaos, turmoil, a Neymar nutmeg, Messi crying.”
