Miguel Rodrigo plans to use defensive play to cut off Croatia's attacking game, which is the key to winning in the first match of the Futsal World Cup on September 14. The Thai national futsal team trained at the Olympic Training Center in Uzbekistan to prepare for their match against Croatia in the opening match of the 2024 Futsal World Cup. In this training session, the Thai team had goalkeeper Arus Senbat, who previously suffered a knee injury, train with the team for approximately 1 hour. After training, Arus Senbat revealed that the team had to adjust to the weather conditions and the field. It was a good thing that they had come a few days earlier. Their physical condition is improving. As for their knee injury, they think they will recover in time to help the team in the first game against Croatia, where we have to fight to get the first 3 points. Miguel Rodrigo, head coach of the Thai national futsal team, said that Croatia has a big and strong striker. Both Sekulic and Pelic are now considered th e best strikers. Both are world class. We will play defense using our strengths, trying to squeeze their upper area, helping to prevent attacks because if Croatia can't attack, we will be able to attack, giving us a chance to have the ball.
