What Jose Pekerman could not do with Lionel Messi, after eight years, he’s doing it with James Rodriguez! All thanks to to Radamel Falcao’s injury, though. In 2006, Pekerman reached Germany with the Argentine disciples he had coached since their youth and his diamond Juan Riquelme. Then, a 19-year-old Messi started from the bench, got limited opportunity and was not on the field against Germany in the quarter-final that Argentina lost via tie-breaker.
