"This is a World Cup. Who can not been motivated when they have this opportunity?” Tevez told Clarin.

"I am a lot more focused than four years ago, I'm preparing myself very much for the first game.
"Since I got on the plane from England to travel to Argentina and join the group, I have been thinking about the opener against Nigeria."
Tevez enjoyed a fine season at City, scoring 23 Premier League goals, the fourth highest total in the league this season.
