Saudi Arabia-Denmark – Al Jaber: “Against France, we will play as if it’s the final”

Fuad AMIN, captain (6):

“We played well, but the Danes were luckier than us. We weren’t lacking much and also DENMARK is a difficult team to play against. Our team will make its presence felt in Group C. We lost the match because of a defensive error. Up front we tried to push forward when we had the ball. We’re happy with our physical condition and we also dominated towards the end of the match. It won’t be an upset if we beat FRANCE”.

Sami AL JABER (9):

“The Danes had an advantage thanks to their superior strength. We were too slow in attack and we conceded the goal because of a mistake in defence. Now, for the match against FRANCE, we will play as if it’s the final…like we always do”.
