Uruguay and T & T ready for pivotal soccer matches

-Contributed by Erwin Cifuentes. Uruguay and Trinidad and Tobago enter last minute preparations before their respective World Cup qualifying matches Saturday afternoon. Uruguay will play Australia in Montevideo in a repeat of their 2001 playoff series that the “charruas” won. The Aussies are being warned to expect a very physical match, though Uruguay’s coach plans to emphasize speed over strength. (Sporting Life) Meanwhile, the “Soca Warriors” will face Bahrain in Port-of-Spain with both squads vying for their first chance at qualifying for next year’s World Cup . Trinidadian players are confident that they can win, and the anticipation to the game has been so great that captain Dwight Yorke has called on fans behave orderly on Saturday. (Trinidad Express)
