Diego Maradona and Sergio Aguero expected to attend Argentina's Rugby World Cup semi-final clash

Diego Maradona does keepie uppies with a rugby ball after Argentina’s 45-16 group-stage victory over Tonga

Argentina's football legend Diego Maradona is expected to visit Twickenham Stadium in London to continue supporting Argentina's rugby team in search of their first World Cup glory.

Maradona had even shared the changing room with the Pumas, celebrating their 45-16 group-stage victory over Tonga with some traditional South American dance moves. The 1986 World Cup legend, infamous for his Hand of God, vowed to return back to England should his country-team reach the semis.

He is expected to be joined by fellow-countryman and former son-in-law Sergio Aguero, but that would mean the injured Manchester City striker will have to miss his side's decisive derby clash with rivals Manchester United.

Argentina's fullback rugby star Joaquin Tuculet had already confirmed the news saying "I was already in [the Etihad Stadium] to see [Aguero] play and he can call me now, We have a very good relationship with the Argentina football players and we're happy for them to come and see us."

Argentina celebrate after their 43-20 victory over Ireland in Quarter-Finals

Argentina's performance in National Stadium (Cardiff) during the Quarter-Finals against a much more stronger Ireland was a joy to watch if you were a neutral supporter and had certainly revived the memories of their 2007 Rugby World Cup campaign when they beat hosts France to claim a podium finish with the bronze medal. For Juan Martin Fernandez Lobbe, who played in the victory against Les Bleus (France's nickname) in Paris, reaching the 2015 final would be the perfect ending to his World Cup career.
