00:00We are just sinking in what just we have achieved.
00:03It is a milestone for the club, for the country, which has never happened before.
00:08This was something which each and every person was involved in this team.
00:12That was the goal of everybody qualifying there and to be in top eight.
00:16And I think that what we have achieved is something which took a little time for us to get in.
00:23Because the reason I'm saying this is because the last game, 45 minutes, made everything different.
00:28And I will try to go close to the player.
00:31However, after that, we just had two days off because we also need to think about recovery.
00:37Which we are very keen on doing that.
00:39And we just trained for two days.
00:40We know the challenges ahead and the different set of players going to play now in the IWL.
00:45Obviously, some of the core players will remain.
00:48But we are now facing difficulties in recovery of the players.
00:54Because, like I mentioned, the tempo of playing in that game and which we are not used to.
01:00So, it's taking time for us to recover.
01:02We are prepared.
01:04Whatever time we have got into in these two days, we have done our job as the staff.
01:11And I hope that tomorrow we execute the plan.
01:13Of course.
01:14Definitely, it will help.
01:15It will help to understand how the other countries are playing.
01:18It will help us to understand the tempo.
01:22More games, I would say, if we would have played, irrespective of the result.
01:27Maybe that could really help me.
01:28But three games, we are just coming thick and fast in front of us.
01:31With two days of only rest.
01:33But this will help us to go and make better decisions on the pitch.
01:39Gokulam?
01:40Against Gokulam?
01:41Like I said, I am a former Gokulam and obviously that game, Gokulam is always a special game for us.
01:48And they also know that, they will also not give me so easy, anything easy.
01:52And which we have seen a bit in the second phase.
01:54Having said that, like I mentioned, I believe in what we are doing.
01:58We know what we want to do on the ground.
02:01I hope that we just keep calm, take our chances early and kill the game in the first quarter finals.
