Gabi: "It will be a great test to continue improving"

The captain appeared in the Newsroom of the AAMI Park before the media and noted the participation of the team in the International Champions Cup against Tottenham Hotspur. "We expect a very competitive match tomorrow and I am sure that it will be a great test for us to continue improving. Hopefully this tournament helps us improve and continue with our preparation. It’s great news for us to be in this kind of tournaments, and that speaks well of the growth of the group. We are at the level of the best teams in Europe," he said.

Gabi also talked about the absences in both teams for tomorrow’s match. "We have also left some important players in Madrid, but when you wear this shirt and you compete for this badge, I think that names are not important. The ones of us who are here are going to defend these colours as we always do," he said.
