00:47No bigger tournament than the World Cup so it's about arriving and just giving absolutely
00:51everything to make the nation back home very proud of us and to do that we need to just
00:56be ourselves.
00:57We're here for a reason and it's about bringing that, being the best version of yourself,
01:01being the best version individually and collectively, working every day to achieve our dreams really
01:07and to do that we'll have to be on it every day, we'll have to be ready to sacrifice
01:11for each other, we'll have to be ready to do all the invisible work as the gaffer says.
01:15I think it's important to try to just build your capacity really to these conditions,
01:20I know that depending on where you're playing in the country can be different all over so
01:25it's hard to really adapt but it's about this week to get some, to build that capacity
01:30to get used to the heat a little bit, the games will be good for that as well, to get
01:35that exposure so just best we can, we've got an amazing team behind the team.
01:52Even now I got goosebumps because it brings back memories and you know it's not easy to win
01:58that trophy it's every four years so you don't have as a player so many chances to be able to
02:06win it and lift it so I think for everyone who ever lifted that trophy, it's a lot of fun.
02:10You actually want to repeat and you want to win it again, it's going to be fantastic, everyone will get
02:15so excited, I've been living in Chicago for three years, I know what it means for the US to have
02:21that kind of sport event and so the positiveness and the excitement will be huge and it will be an
02:28unbelievable journey, unbelievable tournament and I'm looking forward to be part of it.
02:33More than a billion people across the world will watch and when this trophy is hoisted into the air, they
02:40will see something that is all too rare in this world, something that people work their entire lives to achieve,
02:48even if for just a brief fleeting moment, they will see greatness.
02:53You guys ready for that?
02:54You ready?
02:58The first of seven games that will be hosted across New York, New Jersey.
03:03Bastian, it would probably be best if you don't sit with the Brazilian fans.
03:06On June 13th and over the month that follows, greatness will exist on the pitch and it will feel right
03:12at home here in New York City.
