According
to the coach, the debut participation in the world championship is a serious
challenge for any team, especially if it is opposed by rivals of the highest
level.
"Of
course, the debut participation in the World Cup cannot be easy. After the
draw, when we saw Colombia and Portugal in our group, we knew that serious
opponents were waiting for us.
After the
Colombia game, I said that I was proud of my team and today I can repeat these
words. Yes, they had to face serious difficulties, but they did not give up for
a second.
Of course,
playing against a national team that has world-class players in every position
is extremely difficult. Undoubtedly, the Portuguese entered the field with
great motivation. However, as I said before, this World Cup is an important
experience for us."
