AS Roma winger Erik Lamela is looking forward to Argentina's friendly with Italy.
The match has been organised at the Stadio Olimpico on August 14 as a tribute to the new Pope, who hails from Argentina and is a passionate football fan.
"It is a double emotion for me to play in honour of the Pope and to wear the jersey of Argentina," declared Lamela.
"I hope Italy and Argentina can provide a great game for everyone."
