02:01as
02:01much about haiti to know about haiti about our culture what would it be i think you said it the
02:06resilience i think uh this group shows that day in and day out we we fight non-stop we don't
02:12we try
02:13not to take no for an answer we're gonna go to the 90th minute and uh i think if you
02:18watched our
02:19qualifying group you saw that they gave us i think a five percent chance to qualify and the fact that
02:24we
02:24were able to win the group and qualify straight out just shows that we don't really care what people
02:28were going to say um i think pride is another thing that comes to mind when you think about
02:32about haiti being the first uh free black republic and being able to to help get so many other countries
02:38there their uh their republican independence and all that stuff so i think that we take pride in that and
02:44that's what we are going to try to bring on the field and show pride and resilience and that's
02:47i think that's the two big words for us
02:49you
