Kaka: The Kazakhstan futsal team is strong in their spirit and unity!'
- The tournament was organized at a high level. We played with the strongest teams in Europe and the world. We took third place, having as many points as Iran, which took the second place. Such tournaments are a futsal decoration. I wish there were as many as possible.
We had some tasks: probably, when everyone saw our squad, they thought that we would come only to play in defense. But we played every match to win. In the first game - against Iran - we lacked a bit of teamwork and confidence. The first half against the Iranians we played badly, but in the second half the team gained confidence and deserved at least a draw.
- Did you manage to call up all the strongest players of our team to this tournament?
- We invited everyone we could to the tournament. Some football players were injured. Tynan started to prepare with us, but for family reasons he had to leave, and Leo refused to play for the Kazakhstan national team.
- Are you satisfied with the game of the team?
- Regarding the game that we showed, I can not say that I am completely satisfied. We did not play our main squad, but, despite this, the team did their best. Each of the players raised his level and defended the honor of his country.
