Costa roster confirmed

25/04/2006: Coach Alexandre Guimaraes has named a 28-man provisional squad for Costa Rica's World Cup bid which begins on June 9 when they face hosts Germany in the opening game of the summer showpiece.

There are few surprises in the roster with perhaps the omission of striker Winston Parks of Lokomotiv Moscow the most notable, as well as the inclusion of local-based defender Cristian Montero who was delighted at the prospect of representing his country.

"I am very happy," Montero said.

"I didn't expect it, though it was always at the back of my mind. I'll try and get my head around it and start to become focused on the tournament."
