Argentine striker of FC Orenburg Brian Mansilla expressed hope that in the final of the Copa America the national team of his country will play against Brazil.
I would love to see this match. We already won the previous Copa America tournament. There has been rivalry between Brazil and Argentina since the times of Pele and Maradona. But for now, both Argentinians have to play, and Brazilians have to play - against Uruguay. These are great teams, and I hope they will put on a spectacular and exciting show for all football fans.
