Sergio Aguero has revealed plans to repay his "debt" to Argentina by firing them to Copa America glory, 12 months after his underwhelming World Cup campaign.
The Manchester City hitman struggled for fitness and form in Brazil last summer as the Albiceleste were beaten by Germany in extra time.
Aguero, who played 75 minutes at the Maracana that night, is expected to lead the forward line for his country in Saturday's Copa America final with host nation Chile.
"I always said that what happened at the World Cup, because I did not get there in the best condition, kept a thorn in me," Aguero told La Nacion.
"Now I feel better, I arrived better and it's a debt that I'm trying to pay in the Copa. We will always have a bitter taste from the final with Germany, but winning the Copa would give us much happiness."
The 27-year-old was on target in his nation's 6-1 thrashing of Paraguay in the semi-final to bring his total for the competition to three.
