    FIFA WC: Westwood Backs Spain To Edge Uruguay, Hails Yamal As World Cup's Standout Young Star

    Former Bengaluru FC: Former Bengaluru FC and Kerala Blasters FC head coach Ashley Westwood has tipped Spain to overcome Uruguay in one of the most anticipated knockout clashes of the FIFA World Cup, while describing teenage sensation Lamine Yamal as a "special talent" destined for greatness.

    Westwood said Spain's ability to control possession and dictate games gives them an advantage, even though Uruguay is known for its fighting spirit.

    "Spain will have the edge because they control possession, manage the game well, and have incredible midfield players like Pedri, Gavi, and Rodri. Uruguay always brings resilience, aggression, and intensity, so predicting the game will be tough. Still, if I had to choose, I would say Spain will come out on top," Westwood told Zee5.
