What They're Saying
Venezuela head coach Noel Sanvicente (via FIFA): "We've got a lot of problems here, but we need to start changing things. The first thing we have to do is come together and be more professional. I'm not just talking about the players, but about everyone who's involved in this sport, which means coaches, directors and the rest. People always talk about the players, but those of us around them make mistakes too. We all have to improve."
"We have to draw on all the experience we've acquired in games and at training camps," he added. "The previous coaching team did a fantastic job, and we'll take what they achieved and make our own contribution."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Chile's Charles Aranguiz has been effective with Brazilian outfit Internacional. The 25-year-old has three goals in nine appearances with the club. He'll look to provide influential service from the midfield on Friday.
