Maradona wants Argentina "attacking" Brazil Former Argentine soccer star Diego Armando Maradona said Wednesday the Argentine national soccer team "has to attack" Brazil in the Wednesday qualifier at Buenos Aires. Few hours prior to the match, Diego recognized before the press that the visitors "are a little better than the locals" but the "personality of the Argentine player is bigger than that of the Brazilian one." Maradona was consulted at the Ezeiza International Airport a few minutes prior to departing for Italy for a tribute match for his former teammate Ciro Ferrara. He said coach Jose Pekerman, of the Argentine national soccer team, will certainly "will make Argentina attack rather than defend" as they "do not know how to do it." Maradona appeared confident about the victory of his country's team and lamented not being able to be at Monumental Stadium of Buenos Aires for the qualifier. In the table of positions of the South American heat for the Germany 2006 World Cup, Argentina runs first with 28 points and Brazil second with 27.
