Bosnian plan: attack like “hungry wolves”

 Croatian coach of Bosnia-Herzegovina, Miroslav Blažević, said Monday that his players will attack as “hungry wolves”, in the return leg of 2010 World Cup qualifiers scheduled for Wednesday in Zenica.

 “In the days remaining until the game, you create an environment so that the players are ready to attack the Portuguese as hungry wolves. We’ll storm, but for that we need the public support. I want to put such a pressure in early minutes, so that the Portuguese will not be able to understand what happens. We are convinced that we can recover the difference from the first leg and we can qualify for the tournament, “said Blazevic for the Bosnian daily newspaper Dnevni Avaz”.

 Muratov, the captain Sipahi and Rahimi were suspended, while the guests will miss Cristiano Ronaldo, injured.
