Panama coach confident against TT Warriors
PANAMA coach Jose Hernandez says his team is not worried about aerial strength in the Trinidad and Tobago outfit as his team possesses similar attributes and he is confident they can hold off the "TT Warriors" in Saturday’s crucial World Cup qualifying game at Hasely Crawford Stadium. And aware of Panama’s confident mood, TT’s Scottish-based defender Marvin Andrews, noted for his towering strength said it would come down to who wanted Saturday’s three points more and he was holding on to his dream of making a World Cup with this country. Colombian-born Hernandez selected 18 players for closed door training sessions at the Rommel Fern?ndez Stadium before their arrival in Port-of-Spain tomorrow to take up base at the Marriot Hotel. "We have done our work and I am sure that Trinidad has as well," Hernandez said on Monday. "Trinidad has aerial game and strength, just like Panama. That does not mean a problem for us in facing them on Saturday." Hernandez included 33-year-old midfielder Neftal? D?az and their dangerous forward Luis Tejada of Colombian side Envigado. Jos? Luis Garc?s and team topscorer Roberto Brown of club San Francisco are also in the team. TT coach Leo Beenhakker conducted a session under the hot sun for roughly 90 minutes at the Larry Gomes Stadium on Tuesday morning. Team skipper Dwight Yorke arrived about 45 minutes before and went through his own drills before the actual session commenced.
