The Israeli team will open tomorrow (Thursday, 19:00) the 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign with a home game against the Danish team in Bloomfield, as part of House 6. Ahead of the intriguing meeting, team captain Beavers Natcho and coach Willy Rotensteiner spoke at a press conference.
“First game against the strongest team at home, ranked high in the rankings,” he began Natcho His words, “It’s clear to everyone that they are the favorites. Prepare well and we will do our best to get points out of this game. How can this campaign be better than others? We need to win more games, and it will not be easy. This is not an easy home. We will have to do things perfectly because it will be a very big challenge to beat them tomorrow and I hope we will do it.
On his position on the team: “As for the squad, only the coach decides. I don’t mind anything, I talked to the coach before all the whispers and everything is acceptable to both of us, I knew everything before and it is acceptable to me. What matters is that the team is better Other. If I did not think I could contribute I would not be here. In Israel, exaggeration is a matter of age. In football the two best players in the world you will see how old they are, in NBA basketball the best player, in football too, you will leave the age. I get my respect from the players and the team and that is the most important thing for me. “
National team coach, Willy Rotensteiner: “It is difficult to compare the teams but in my opinion Austria and Denmark are the two best teams at home, and it is a challenge to face both. From the Denmark goalkeeper to the strikers they have a lot of international experience. We have a lot of motivation to play against such a team.”
The coach added: “I will not reveal the game plan of course, but the players must know what will be done on the field and what our goals are. “We know Denmark well, we have analyzed it, and I think in all aspects of the game, we must know exactly how to move forward against them and in order to have a chance to win.”
The Austrian was asked who will be the captain when Natcho is not on the pitch and replied: “I have decided and we are ready for it, but it is not up for discussion at the moment. This one has one captain and that’s Natcho.
