“We got a lot closer to the final list. As you can imagine there will always be changes, we’ve made some now. We will discuss in the last minutes who will be in the World Cup. We have some new names, and it’s really good because we’re going to face two big opponents and we’re going to be able to watch them“, said the coach.
An absence felt in the squad was Ludmila, and Pia spoke about her striker: “Ludmila is special because of her speed and strength. She has scored goals, given assists, but there will always be someone who can replace her. We have to recognize that Ludmila will not be with us, we don’t have another Ludmila, I don’t think we have another player as fast as her, but we have other important players. I was sad for her, for the injury“.
