On the match

There's one final game before the international break, and we need to finish this phase strongly. As for what comes next, we'll see after we return.

We know you will be in contention. However, what do you think is the main reason the team has maintained such good form at the start of the season?

I think ever since the new manager arrived, everyone has performed exceptionally well, and everything has gone smoothly. The whole team is very united. I believe we are still getting to know each other better, and the new players are working hard to integrate. But I think we are doing very well in all aspects right now, and we hope to continue that.

Maresca said when talking about Sunderland that he believes it will be one of your toughest challenges so far this season. Do you agree with him?

Yes. I think they have a lot of very good players. When we played them last season, it was a very tough game, and it won't be any different this season.
