Of course everybody is excited, but just be yourself, show yourself, because this is the biggest stage.The Curaao players have worked hard to ensure they are prepared for their debut. Germany, making its 21st appearance in the World Cup, is a heavy favorite.Weve watched a lot of clips of Germany. How they play, what they can do, Sambo said.Advocaat said there is more pressure on teams like Germany that are considered favorites and that his team has everything to win and nothing to lose.He's confident that Curaao is ready for the challenge of facing Germany, which he referred to as a towering contender.We are a minor, very small country compared to Germany and were going to make life very difficult for them, he said. Were going to be a very unpleasant team to play.

We want to show ourselves and get good results.Despite the countrys small population, Curaao will have plenty of supporters to cheer them on as they make history. Sambo said his own family will be attending, as will 21 families of other players.I (would describe us) as one big family, defender Livano Comenencia said. If you see us on the bus or outside the bus, in the hotel, we are always with music, always happy.
