November 23 Beijing time on November 23, Qatar World Cup group stage first round, Germany will usher in the match against Japan. Before the match, German midfielder Kimishi attended the pre-match press conference, at which he talked about the ban on wearing rainbow armbands and the team’s preparations.
About the situation that you can’t wear One Love armbands.
Kimishi: “I am surprised by the ban. We players often reflect and point out problems, but we should talk about football again at some point. It was not my fault that the World Cup was held here 12 years ago, when I was 15.” Nevertheless, I must continue to talk about it. We have a chance to go out and see what life is like. Don’t let us live in a fantasy. ”
“the World Cup is a childhood dream of many people. I have a feeling that we are told that we should not really be happy because the World Cup takes place here. We are all ready to play a good game. There is nothing we can do about where the World Cup will be held. ”
About Muller and Sane.
Kimishi: “Muller has plenty of time to recover and he has made a good impression.” Sane’s absence is very sad because he can help any team. ”
About your position in the team
Kimishi: “I mainly play in midfield.” In 2018, I played mainly at right-back and was happy to play in midfield, but everyone in the team had a responsibility-especially in midfield. I’m looking forward to a game like this against Japan. ”
It has been four and a half years since the last World Cup, is there still motivation?
Kimishi: “four and a half years later our motivation is huge because we have to wait for a long time.” The first game is very important and as shown in the last few games, I believe we can win tomorrow. ”
