India coach Jose Brasa is expecting a tough fight from the Argentines in their classification match for the seventh-eight places in the Hockey World Cup here Friday.

"Argentina have scored lot of goals in the tournament but they have also conceded a lot. It will be a different match against Argentines. They will surely give us a tough fight," said the Spaniard on the eve of his team's game at the Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium here.

"We have beaten them in their backyard in Salta. I will be sad, but not surprised, if we lose against them."
