Adjust font size:

Uruguayan national soccer team coach Oscar Tabarez seemed to go for a tactic format of 4-4-2 to play against Argentina during the South American World Cup qualifier on Wednesday.

During his last contact with press before the match on Saturday in Buenos Aires, Tabarez said that "still there are many opened doors" and that there are two days more of training.

Tabarez said that now his concern is Argentina, and he said that he already defined a strategy to visit Bolivia, 3,600 meter over the sea in La Paz on Oct. 14.

"We already are thinking on Bolivia and defined a strategy of what we are going to do after Argentina. With the information we get from the players and supported on that strategy we will plan that match," Tabarez said.

After eight rounds, Argentina is on third place with 13 points like Brazil and Chile. Uruguay is on fifth place with 12 points and in zone of second-chance.

Team captain Diego Lugano is injured, so in case he does not recover he surely will be replaced by Andres Scotti.

Meanwhile, player "Loco" Abreu told the press that Tabarez' tactic seems "strong" despite could be variants according to the players he uses.

Uruguayan team will be gathered since Thursday midday to develop its last tactic movement at noon and then to travel on Friday to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
