U-20 World Cup: Brazil's coach admits that the Flying Eagles will be difficult to defeat.

Brazil's head coach, Ramon Menezes, has admitted that the Flying Eagles will be difficult to beat.

The Young Selecao will face the West Africans in La Plata on Saturday (today) in a must-win situation.

Brazil currently occupies second position in Group D behind the Flying Eagles who are already through to the Round of 16 having won their opening two games against Dominican Republic and Italy.

Defeat in the game will end the South Americans dream of winning a sixth title.

Menezes acknowledged the enormity of the task before his team.

“African teams are traditional powerhouses at this level and Nigeria is one of them,” the tactician told a press conference.

“So we have to approach the game with caution seeing how they have been playing so far. It won’t be an easy game for us to win,” he added.
