00:00I feel like what's different about them is how they prepare mentally before the games.
00:04They seem more calm, more relaxed.
00:09The first day was a bit like nerves, I would say, but towards the end it felt much better.
00:14And the team, they're all very welcoming. The players, it almost feels very friendly, like.
00:21Alhamdulillah, yesterday it was a great start for us. We learned a lot from them.
00:26And inshallah, the coming two days also we learn more and more from them.
00:29I feel like what's different about them is how they prepare mentally before the games.
00:34They seem more calm, more relaxed. They don't think too much, maybe because they're used to
00:40these big stages and these type of events. Looking at them being this calm mentally made me feel like
00:46I'm calm as well. But in terms of physical and preparation, it's very similar, I would say.
00:52It was a new experience for us. We play tournaments as a team, only with the national team.
00:57This is the first time we play a tournament as a team, but not with the national team.
01:01So we saw them, how they sit all together, how they talk. Even though the difference of the
01:05level, but they still take our, like they listen from us and they hear from us.
01:10And that was really good for us.
01:11What we realized and what we're seeing here is that
01:14if you want to really compete with the highest level,
01:18maybe being around them in that environment will allow us to
01:22get to their level and compete with them as well.
01:25I think it will help us. It will motivate us.
01:27But I think to become a professional player, you need consistency, consistent and discipline.
01:33Yes, we have all the resources here in Dubai. We have a great team. We have a great support system.
01:37It's however, the environment is not as strong as Spain and Argentina.
01:41My thought process about the coaching is there isn't much of a difference.
01:45I think we have great coaches here in Dubai.
01:48They support us and they think just how they think.
01:52It's just the players, like I said, are a bit different.
01:56Exactly.
