Football legend Diego Maradona has expressed a desire to return as coach of Argentina's national team after their 2-4 loss to Nigeria in a friendly. Tuesday's result in the Russian city of Krasnodar follows a torrid period for the Jorge Sampaoli side, who only secured a berth in next year's World Cup by defeating Ecuador 3-1 in their final qualifier last month, reports Xinhua news agency.

"Who has won more? Let's make our own conclusions," Maradona said in a social media post. "I'm upset because they have taken away our prestige. You can't blame the players. I want to return!" The words were accompanied by a table showing the record of 11 previous Argentina coaches.
