00:00Well hugely excited to lead your country into a major tournament is an amazing
00:05honor great privilege so for me that's just as exciting as it was ahead of
00:12Russia if not more so yeah in terms of our standing I think you've already seen
00:19Germany play the way they did last night Spain in the first half today there are
00:24a lot of good teams in this tournament and we have to be exceptional to
00:29progress firstly through the group and then the opportunity to go further so
00:35our focus is on qualifying from the group you have to when you're trying to
00:40achieve exceptional things you have to break it down into manageable chunks and
00:45the first priority is get get out of the group and then and then work from there
00:49no I think you know every tournament poses different expectations I think you
00:54know we've earned the right to be I guess class as one of the favorites but
00:58we look at ourselves in you know in individually and as a team and going
01:04into this tournament we know you know in past tournaments we've done a lot of
01:07things well and we've made you know the country proud and we've had good
01:11tournaments but ultimately where we're here to win it and there'll be nothing
01:14better for for us and the nation itself if we if we do that but yeah like the
01:19boss said earlier there's a lot of top top teams first and foremost is our
01:23focus tomorrow night and obviously the groups the group stage and then from
01:27there you know we know how tough it was to get to the final a few years ago and
01:32we're going to have to do that and even more if we if we want to achieve that
01:35and hopefully one step further this this year
