oh, crucial is an understatement. i think it's oh, crucial is an understatement. i think its huge. it's probably the biggest game that i think outside of belgium that you would have predicted. looking at ok, belgian probably going to be the strongest team, you're always looking at czech republic is ok that's the one to beat. ., ' . ., , , republic is ok that's the one to beat. ., , . ., , , ., beat. how difficult has it been for this team to _ beat. how difficult has it been for this team to have _ beat. how difficult has it been for this team to have these - beat. how difficult has it been for this team to have these two - beat. how difficult has it been for i this team to have these two games beat. how difficult has it been for - this team to have these two games as the two openers? you this team to have these two games as the two openers?— this team to have these two games as the two openers?— the two openers? you could look at it as if you — the two openers? you could look at it as if you get _ the two openers? you could look at it as if you get good _ the two openers? you could look at it as if you get good results - it as if you get good results overall in both games that you look at it as ok, those are out of the way. let's get the winds on the other ones. you're going to have to face them at some point. right now it's very, very difficult but we will see how tonight is. i think tonight is so big. i think czech republic is the games that we should be getting points from. for me i said if you predict four points from czech republic i think you'd be in a
