00:00There are of course many positions where this game will be decided.
00:04I think there is a lot of quality on the pitch, Friday on both sides.
00:07We have already dealt with Spain in great detail, what their strengths are, but also what their weaknesses are.
00:14I think we will meet two teams on Friday who prefer to have the ball than not have it.
00:18It will also be a lot about how to deal with time without the ball.
00:23Who feels a little more comfortable in the end.
00:26We'll see. I think we are well prepared.
00:29That's always someone you prefer to play with than against.
00:33That's always a good sign.
00:35We can be happy that we have him here.
00:38We as a team can be happy that we play with him.
00:41Except in training from time to time.
00:43But you've seen that.
00:45You've seen that for a while now.
00:48There's definitely a guy in there for us who really wants to defend.
00:54Sometimes I'm even the wrong one to be asked.
00:59You should ask the opposing strikers if they want to play against him.
01:03Because the answer is relatively clear.
01:05I think it's fair to say that he was the best man this season in Barcelona.
01:12Or the most dangerous man.
01:14Basically, you have to say at 16, to play like that, to be so important for teams like Barcelona or the Spanish national team.
01:23The two of them are not really training teams.
01:28You have to be careful with that.
