I suffer when playing for Argentina, says Carlos Tevez

Carlos Tevez admitted criticism directed at Argentina's players led him to consider quitting

Carlos Tevez admitted criticism directed at Argentina's players led him to consider quitting.

Argentina qualified for the World Cup with a 1-0 win over Uruguay, prompting coach Diego Maradona to get back at critics with some unpleasant words in his post-match briefing, for which FIFA could hand him a five-match ban.

Tevez said: "When I play for Argentina I spend more time suffering. The fans insulted us, journalists criticised us. Sometimes I think about quitting the national team."
