00:00It was nice, it was a show, and they made it happen.

00:07Like I said, Rio Ferdinand was outstanding.

00:10So now we know, we have a difficult group, and we need to be prepared.

00:15It's the least of things, yes, of course.

00:17It's a solid, dense group.

00:19We don't know yet the last opponent, but with the Senegal and Norway,

00:25it's the most difficult team we could get from POD 1, for sure.

00:40They won the World Cup 4 years ago, 3 and a half years ago,

00:44but also qualified in a very dominant way.

00:47It's the most difficult team we could get from POD 1,

00:51so I think I'm happy with the draw and with the groove.

00:56Well, the games you have to play,

00:58they are rivals from Austria and Argelia,

01:01they are difficult rivals,

01:03and Jordania is the team we don't know,

01:07but we already have the experience of what was the game

01:10with Arabia in the World Cup,

01:12so we have to play the games.

01:14For the world there will be, like Argentina and Spain,

01:17a lot of candidates, like Brazil, like Colombia, like Alemania, like France.

01:22If we start to think about everything behind us,

01:24we have to say that there is a very high level in this world.

01:28It can be a historic world championship,

01:30I think it is, but it can be because of the achievement

01:33and the football that we can see.

01:34Yes, I think favoritism is not a word that goes with Portugal,

01:37because we want to be candidates,

01:39because we are a team that we desire a lot of ourselves,

01:42but the favorites are only the nations that have won the World Cup,

01:45the World Cup.

01:47Because of the psychology perspective,

01:48because of the perspective of having a generation

01:50before they had won the World Cup,

01:52it prepares you differently.
