Sheriff coach Veaceslav Rusnac said the November 7 match against Tottenham, of the Europa League, is the most important in his career. “Such games show how a team is like. Tottenham is the favorite not only in the group, but also in the competition,” he stated in a news conference before the match, IPN reports.
However, the coach said that Sheriff can leave White Hart Lane Stadium with points. “We learned from the mistakes made in the match played in Tiraspol. I’m convinced that we can score in London,” stated Veaceslav Rusnac.
Moldova’s champion team will play without the Spanish champion Melli, who was suspended. Nacer Chadli, Danny Rose and Zeki Fryers will not play for Tottenham as they sustained injuries.
“We want to continue the series of victories without receiving goals in the encounter against Sheriff too,” said Tottenham coach Andre Villas-Boas.
The match starts at 22.05. After playing three matches, Tottenham scored nine goals and is certain to qualify. Sheriff has only two points, by two fewer than Anji.
