Argentina coach Jose Pekerman said his team will have a tough task when they play Ivory Coast in their World Cup opening game on Saturday. But the veteran coach stressed that his side have enough quality to tame the African Elephants. "Ivory Coast may seem a typical African side, but they are far more organized than you might think," Pekerman was quoted as saying by FIFAworldcup.com on Friday. "They are very strong physically and Drogba is a striker to be feared," Pekerman added. Argentina will be looking to erase the image they appeared with in 2002 when they crashed out of the first stage despite being favorites to win the title. "We have some real match-winners who are ideally suited to these types of games," Pekerman said. "We have fast players with ball skills and bags of pace and that will give us the advantage." The two time world champions are drawn in what is considered the World Cup's group of death that also includes Holland and Serbia and Montenegro.
