Argentina easily defeated Haiti 4-0 in an international friendly
Wednesday, one of the last warm-ups for the South Americans before
they head to the World Cup in South Africa.
Argentina played without its Europe-based stars, with coach
Diego Maradona taking a look at local players who could make his
23-man squad.
Boca Juniors' Martin Palermo, the club's all-time leading
scorer, helped his chances with a goal. Facundo Bertoglio scored
two and Sebastian Blanco added the other.
Many of the Haitian players lost loved ones in the
devastating earthquake on Jan. 12.
The highlight for many members of the team appeared to be
lining up at halftime to snap a photo with Maradona.
