Romania - Uruguay

International Friendly

There is always room for failures in friendly matches, but for Uruguay this should be something more. The main reason for that is that with a win today, the South Americans will equalize their undefeated run of 14 matches, and would have a chance to beat that record, thus cementing their place as one of the top teams, after their good performance in the World Cup and their triumph in Copa America. And they won't take any middle-road today, as all their main weapons are set to start the game, with an offensive trio formed by Forlan, Suarez and Cavani... the best they have. Romania will also try to take this match seriously, but they lack quality. Coach Piturca went for a lot of youth in the squad, and besides the fact that many of the players haven't confirmed at the top level, there is also some lack of international experience in the squad. Defense should be the key word for Romania today, with hopes of some lucky counter-attacks. However, the Europeans aren't in their best moment, and with the class difference clearly in Uruguay's favor, they shouldn't lose this game. GL!
