00:00I think the first game was a great experience and on the think of what we played at the World
00:07Cup
00:07so we finished with Egypt and then your next match is Brazil and we wanted to compete we
00:13wanted to show that we can compete with such a strong nation and we did compete well what we
00:19don't have yet that Brazil has in terms of their players is we're not accustomed to playing
00:27top level opposition every four days our players are not at that level yet
00:33you know we don't have players playing regularly in the Champions League we're in the top leagues
00:38we're playing every four days 60 games a year so this is a great test for us to see can
00:44we back up
00:45physically can we back up mentally can we back up with the quality that we showed with them without
00:50the ball and that's why we're playing Brazil and we're we're delighted that they did come to Australia
00:55to give us this huge test and I expect it to be difficult but it's what we want it's what
01:03we
01:03wanted from these two games we've seen it in the first game and now that the test is can we
01:08back up
01:10where I know the players certainly would have found that difficult to play physically so you have to
01:16be at your very best to compete with Brazil and now we've got to try and back it up so
01:22great test and something we're looking forward to.
