(The draw) presents us with new challenges against attractive teams, both on the professional level and in terms of spectator interest, where our fans will be able to see players of the highest caliber in Europe. |
England is the strongest team in the group. It's [England] the birth place of soccer and this will be the first time we have faced them in an official match. |
I am not afraid of challenges. I am filled with adrenaline and willpower to face this challenge and the level of expectations -- to guide Israel to its first major achievement in 36 years. |
I'm an advocate of attacking soccer. Even when I met top European teams I always played without fear. |
