The Argentine football side has not won a major title since its Copa America triumph in1993 and has struggled despite the presence of Lionel Messi.
However, Crespo, the country’s third-highest goal scorer feels there is not a lot wrong with the national side.
“We reached the finals of the last three major events, two Copa Americas and the FIFA World Cup. In the final sometimes it goes either way but to arrive at the final you need to be competitive.
“It is not fair to blame Messi. He has played well and is the top scorer for the country. It is just unlucky.”
