Ahead of tomorrow’s crunch cracker between Mexico and the Golden Eaglets of Nigeria, Coach of the El-Tri junior team, Raul Gutierrez has fired warning to the high flying Africans that he now knows them better, unlike the first game between the two teams,  where his lads were trashed 6-1.

Both teams have gone a long way from the first game played against each other and tomorrow, with the trophy at stake, Mexico promised to show the Eaglets hell when the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup final gets underway at the beautiful National Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

Speaking after his lads defeated Argentina 3-0, Gutierrez declared himself a happy man, saying his team has put behind them the humiliation suffered in the hands of the Eaglets, pointing out that three of the last four teams left in the race came from Group F.

He claimed to have extra knowledge of the goal machine Eaglets and will work tirelessly to deny the Africans from lifting the title for a record four times.

 “I now know the Nigerians better. The last time we played, I did not know them well but I have since learnt a lot from them and think that it is advantage for my team”, said the coach.
