00:00Coach, how is the preparation for the match against Islam?
00:05Alhamdulillah, the preparation is like every game that we are ready.
00:10But, Alhamdulillah, there are no injuries from last game.
00:15We just hope that players like Daniel, Chetembe will come back.
00:23But still 50-50 chances.
00:25But other than that, Alhamdulillah, everyone is fit and ready to play for this Saturday game.
00:31Coach, is there still a chance for both teams?
00:38Both teams will know that there are chances.
00:45Because football, everything starts from zero on the game day.
00:50So, we have to have the mentality that we are not taking the lead at the moment.
00:57Because once we think like that, it will be dangerous.
01:00So, the most important thing is that we have to think that we are going there to win,
01:06not to defend, not to think that we are taking the lead.
01:11So, this is the most important thing.
01:13And I hope that the players' mentality is ready.
01:16Because we know that Selangor has not played their place, with their fans, with the atmosphere there.
01:23So, we have to work harder than the last game.
01:30Is Ruchir Siti going to find an early match at the ABCJ?
01:34That's not important.
01:36The most important thing is that we don't give up in the first round.
01:41That's the most important thing.
01:42And we have to focus.
01:43When there are chances, we have to take them.
01:47But the most important thing is that we have the compactness and discipline.
01:53For this Saturday, we have to focus.
01:59Do you think Selangor is too much?
02:02Yes, I think Selangor has a lot of good attacking players.
02:07Not one or two, but they have five or six good players.
02:11We know that they score a lot of goals in every game.
02:15So, this is a challenge for us.
02:17The most important thing is that we have to defend together.
02:21And we have to be very disciplined when it comes to defending.
02:26As the ABCJ, this season we have a full house against Selangor.
02:30Is that a challenge for you?
02:33That's a challenge, yes.
02:35But as a player, I hope that they are more motivated.
02:40Football is nothing without fans.
02:43And when I play, I am more motivated.
02:47Because when we look back at COVID-19, there are no spectators.
02:53The atmosphere is boring.
02:56So, this is a good atmosphere.
02:58And as a footballer, you are more proud and motivated when the stadium is full.
03:04So, I hope the players have the same mindset.
03:07And God willing, I think they will give their best.
03:11Last one.
03:12Do you have anything to say to the fans of Kuching City?
03:16First of all, I would like to thank them for coming to the last game.
03:21They helped our team a lot.
03:25So, I hope the same goes for the ABCJ.
03:30For those who can't attend the ABCJ,
03:34I hope they can always support us on social media,
03:38in Kuching, and throughout Sarawak.
03:41That's why we, the players, are more motivated if we can motivate them.
