“We know that by playing a good game, being very dedicated, attentive and effective, we are going to achieve victory and, therefore, those statistics are going to be given, which is breaking the undefeated record of a great team that is Colombia,” he said.
And he stated: “We have security, one could say intact, and we know and are aware that in our house we have to become very strong and ensure our home is respected.”
