When you play them in a World Cup, that means they got through European qualifying, which means they’re very good teams. I can see a lot of teams struggling with that. I wouldn’t read too much into that.”“But if that’s the case, that’s a great challenge for our guys, that’s a great opportunity,” he continued.
