Uruguay will make it ‘unfriendly’ for Aussies

URUGUAY coach Jorge Fossati is ready for a tough final hurdle against Australia but is confident of reaching the 2006 World Cup finals.

“They have some quality players and a very experienced coach with an excellent track record,” said Fossati after a 1-0 win over already-qualified Argentina clinched the play-off place as the fifth team in the South American qualifying group.

Australia’s much-travelled Dutch coach Guus Hiddink led South Korea to the World Cup semi-finals in 2002.
