Alejandro Sabella excited by Argentina forwards

Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella has admitted that he is enthused by the wealth of attacking options at his disposal for the World Cup.

Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero are expected to lead the line for the two-time champions out in Brazil, while Gonzalo Higuain and Angel di Maria are also in the squad.

"There are some great players in this team, most of all the forwards," Sabella is quoted as saying by Goal.com. "With them you are enthusiastic. I can't deny that even I am.

"Every fan is excited by the prospect of watching these players when they are in form."

Argentina get their World Cup campaign underway on June 15 when they face Bosnia-Herzegovina in Rio de Janeiro.
