Sergio Markarian: There couldn't be a better draw for Uruguay

Sergio Markarian, the former head coach of Greek and Peru national teams, commented on the result of the World Cup draw for Uruguay, which will compete in the group stage of the final tournament against Russia, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
According to 73-year-old Sergio Markarian, there couldn’t be a better draw for Uruguay. He thinks that the best draw is for South American teams. It is more difficult when there is a clear favorite in the group and two teams are fighting for the second place. In that case, at least two victories are needed. Now, according to Markarian, they will have one opponent in the group. Markarian believes that Uruguay will easily overcome the group stage.

Group A: Russia, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Uruguay
Group B: Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Iran
Group C: France, Australia, Peru, Denmark
Group D: Argentina, Island, Croatia, Nigeria
Group E: Brazil, Switzerland, Costa Rica, Serbia
Group F: Germany, Mexico, Sweden, North Korea
Group G: Belgium, Panama, Tunisia, England
Group H: Poland, Senegal, Columbia, Japan
