Argentina coach Diego Maradona was pleased with his wards' performance in the 5-0 thrashing of Canada.
Maradona put out an experimental line-up with some big names, including Lionel Messi, missing from the starting eleven.
Despite that the South Americans thrashed a weak Canadian team, with Maxi Rodriguez (2), Angel di Maria, Carlos Tevez and Kun Aguero all getting on the scoresheet.
Speaking to AS after the match, Maradona said: "I am encouraged that we made people happy. What I value most from the players is the desire they have to prove they can do this and much more."
"The Argentine people can be calm because we have good players that we can put on the team, when the time is right."
Argentina have an embarrasment of riches at their disposal for the World Cup and are hot favourites to reach the final stages of the competition.
