Shandong coach Tumbakovic expects tight contest with Seoul

Shandong Luneng coach Ljubisa Tumbakovic is expecting a tight contest against FC Seoul at the Seoul World Cup Stadium tonight.

Shandong currently sits three points above Seoul on Group F table but a loss would bring them back to even points, making it harder to progress through to the next round in the Asian Champions League.

"We are fighting with Seoul for second place in this group and are looking to win although it is going to be a tough and tight game," said the Serbian.

"Three points will be very nice but a point would also be good.

"Seoul are a team full of good players and they were impressive in China two weeks ago. I don't want to talk about their weak points and would prefer that we make use of those during the match."
