Argentina national football team have traveled to Russia on The Rolling Stones private jet for their campaign in the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

The team were led to the flight by Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi who will want to lift the trophy this year after a disappointing show last four years.

Messi will be hoping for a little more satisfaction from this year's tournament after Argentina were beaten in the 2014 final by Germany.

Alongside Messi, Jorge Sampaoli has Gonzalo Higuain, Angel Di Maria, Sergio Aguero, Paulo Dybala and Cristian Pavon to choose from.

Meanwhile, this could be Lionel Messi's last opportunity at winning a World Cup as he will be 34 when Qatar 2022 comes round.

They are in Group D at the 2018 World Cup in Russia where they will face the Super Eagles of Nigeria, Croatia and Iceland.
