preparing for (2018) World Cup qualifiers," the Uruguayan said.
Carreno said he will start his campaign by taking his side to England

"It will be long and difficult path. Of course I trust the work, the

to move one step at a time. We have to do our best to be among the 12
teams," Carreno said.
"We have to finish this phase. I reiterate that I have the trust of
all people concerned. I thank QFA for this opportunity. We have signed
the contract," he said.
