Georgian national team has already trained at Minsk “Dinamo” stadium, where is to be held qualifying match between Georgia- Belarus on October 16. The match starts at 20:00 o’clock (Tbilisi time). Temur Ketsbaia manager of Georgian national team held the press-conference in Minsk and mentioned that Belarus is stronger than Finland.
Temur Ketsbaia: We need victory, but we know that it is going to be a difficult match- there are good players in Belarusian team.
We had a tense match in Finland, where everything was not easy. It is pity that we could not manage to parry the ball out and played draw. We made one mistake and the goal was scored against us. We will try not to make mistake with Belarus. I hope that we will show our possibilities and win.
-Vicente del Bosque manager of Spanish national team stated it is hard to make prognosis about Georgian team- not only in defense in offence too. How will you play against Belarus?
- Hard to make prognosis? We will not talk in details. Come to the stadium tomorrow and you will see. I believe in my players.
- Tell us about actual problems of your team.
- Those players who are with the team for 8-9 days do not have any problem. All of them are in a good physical condition and they are getting ready for the match. Tomorrow the bests will enter the field.
- Do not you afraid that your players will not have relevant attitude towards the opponent?
- No, I do not. We met the Spanish. It is difficult to play against Spanish team. As for none serious attitude… it will not happen from our side. We played against Belarus a month ago, so we know the power of this team. The fact that Belarus lost with Spain 0:4 does not mean anything. Gleb joined Belarus, so the team is stronger than it was in Tbilisi match.
- How do you think, had Gleb strengthen the team?
- Belarus is a good team even without him but with him it is stronger. Gleb used to play for a long time in Europe and he can be decisive.
-Who else do you like in Belarusian team?
- It is a good team, they were trying to do their best in Tbilisi match, but we played for 3 points. I do not like to distinguish any of them.
- 4 points in 3 matches- is it a good result for you?
- If anyone offered me 4 points in three matches I would agree. As for tomorrow, we will fight for victory. Belarus is stronger than Finland that’s why we have to be determined.
