Diego Maradona has once more backed Carlos Tevez over his omission from the Argentina national team.

The former No 10 and the Juventus forward are close friends and worked at international level during the last World Cup in South Africa.

For his former Coach, it could be a mistake the Albiceleste come to regret.
