“We must be in the mood for victories” – Football – Sportacentrs.com

“In general, I am satisfied with the outcome of the draw. I think we had opponents against whom we can get a positive result. There is no clear favorite in the group, but there is also no clear underdog, so that every game will be very decisive,” the head coach of the Latvian national team described the result of the draw in general . “We will have to prepare as well as possible for the first game of this fairly even group. And we have to be in the mood to win. We can’t expect to win every game if we are not ready to put in as much energy as each match will demand. Attitude is very important, because it’s often the smallest details that decide the fate of winners. So my first task will be to bring to the players’ attention the importance of attitude and focus.”

“We will do a detailed study of the opponents. It is important for us to patiently build our attacking system, and I know that it will be better and better with each passing day. I like it when indoor football is played well. I am ready to serve the players. I believe that this is the main task of every coach,” V. Vujovičs outlined the main highlights of the game that he wants to implement with the Latvian national team.

“Leadership always demands higher standards and more responsibility. The players play the game, but my job is to make them play as well as they can. And that doesn’t necessarily mean dictating to them exactly what to do. The coach doesn’t have to be the brains of the players in every episode of the game. My the way is to help them understand the nuances and secrets of the game,” the coach revealed his working style.

“We will prepare carefully for the first two games with Germany and Slovakia, analyze the opponents and find the best way for us to get good results and make a lot of people happy in this country. I think that has more value than the victory itself. I believe in our players and I have no there is no doubt that it will always be so.”

“The task of the coach is to ensure that the players are creative and brave on the field. As always, my motivating elements remain the same: victory and the main goal of our team – entering the Elite round of qualification. I live in reality and I am aware that it will not be easy. I understand, that the team is the most important thing. I believe that the team has the necessary energy, passion and enthusiasm to achieve a result. Time will tell what results we will achieve and how far we will go, but we promise one thing – we will give all our strength on the field. Whatever the result, no one will be reason to doubt our dedication.”
