- Story Text:Concacaf champions Monterrey aren't in Doha to make up the numbers and are confident of taking down Liverpool on Wednesday's Club World Cup semi final.
The Mexicans have one of the toughest jobs in world football at the Khalifa International Stadium when they face Juergen Klopp's rampaging reds.
But Monterrey boss Antonio Mohamed and defender Nicolas Sanchez told a news conference on Tuesday (December 17) in Doha that they have enough firepower to pose a real threat.
Monterrey already have one win under their belts in the competition, defeating Qatari outfit Al Sadd 3-2. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
