Costa Rica coach Alexander Guimaraes has
shrugged off his side's 1-0 warm-up defeat against Belgium at the weekend.
The Brazilian has told fans not to pay too much attention to the result as his
side gears up for their Group C opener against China on June 4.
"The problem is that some people confused a process with a finished
product," he said.
"People have to forget the team they saw in the qualifiers.
"That team had much more time to work together and a better physical
condition than this one.
"We will make some decisions that may not be very popular, but it will be to
strengthen the team."
Manchester City striker Paulo Wanchope added: "Now we have to work to be sure
that during the World Cup we will take advantage of our chances."
