Argentina Players Trained in Near Freezing Temperatures in Moscow (See Images)

 Seven months before 2018 FIFA World cup in Russia, Argentina team got an early taste of the country as they prepared for a friendly against the host nation.
The Argentina squad though were given a frosty reception in Moscow, at least by the climate, as they trained in the build up to the international clash.

Despite the near freezing temperatures in Moscow, Jorge Sampaoli's side looked in good spirits as they practised ball drills and general fitness training.

Argentina are set to play two fixtures in Russia, starting with Saturday's match against the World Cup hosts at the Luzhniki Stadium before facing off against Nigeria in Krasnodar three days later.
