"The chants of 'Messi... Messi' in the Stadium were deafening. It was heartening to see young boys and girls discussing not just the Argentina line-up but also their style of play. It shows that how knowledgeable this crowd is.

Besides, it was also great to see women and kids come to the stadium to watch the match. Everyone was treated to football of impeccable quality," said the former India goalkeeper.
