“My players are capable of performing miracles, provided they do all they can to please the fans. Argentina are a strong team, but we are a big team and are also very motivated,” he added.

“All the players refuse to break their fast. I will not force them to do something they don’t want; they are free to fast or not,” added el-Sayyed, stressing that they are confident and believe they have what it takes to conquer the Argentineans.He admitted that Argentina are one of the best teams in the tournament. “But we are also a great team with the ambition to win. We’ll use the same tactics we used against Austria. We’re determined to overcome Argentina and qualify for the quarterfinals.”
