After watching his side defeat Iran 4-1 Tuesday at the Khalifa Bin Zayed Stadium in Al Ain, Coach Manu Garba has predicted that his free-scoring boys will beat Uruguay in Saturday’s quarterfinal match in Sharjah.

The Eaglets have scored a remarkable 18 goals in four matches here and
speaking at the media conference, Garba said that his team’s blistering attack was too strong to be contained by Urugauy.

While admitting that the Uruguayans are a strong team made up of tall players, Garba said that “we know that as a South American team, they like to put the ball on the ground and expect a tough match from them  but at the end, we will beat them and qualify for the semifinal.

“We are moving from strength to strength and as the competition progresses, my players will get better. What I like most about my attack is that any of the players can score. I have an attack that is blistering. We have a lot of attacking options. So it will be difficult for any team to stop these players from scoring.

“ When you try to stop one player from scoring, another one will get the goal. So we are a team playing total football and I see us going places”, added
