“We expect a difficult game against them, because they have seen great improvement recently, but we have the quality to overcome them,” Coach Hughton stated.
“We have other players that could have been here but couldn’t make it due to injuries, but that is always part of the game and that gives opportunity to others.

“The players are responsible, dedicated and desperate for success. They want to win laurels for the country and that is why this game is important for us.
