“Let’s focus on the match. We know what Germany does well and what their weaknesses are. From there, we will concentrate on ourselves, what we did well, and what we did well in the previous games, as we played three very difficult matches.

We also analyzed our weaknesses that cost us in the first two matches, and even in the third against Australia, where the game turned around. We need to stay focused from the beginning of the game until the last minute.”
