We spoke to Adam Lang ahead of Saturday's friendly match with Croatia.
- You have been training together with the national squad in Telki ahead of Saturday's game with Croatia. How have the past few days gone for you?
We usually prepare in the same way with two training sessions at the start of the week, and one at the moment as the game gets closer. The main emphasis is being placed on the tactical side of things, which will help to make sure we are fresh for Saturday. We have watched plenty of videos and the coaching staff have prepared us well for the game.
- Hungary have played against several strong opponents in recent years. Where would you place the Croatians in that list?
I feel that the Croatian side are one of the strongest opponents that we have come up against. They have very good players and there are real World stars within their squad. This is a very good chance for us to look at exactly where we are ahead of the European Championships. The national team manager has told us not to focus on our opponents and which clubs they play for. He wants us to focus on ourselves. He also expects us to each give 100% in the match.
- How important is the result in a friendly game?
Football today is a results based business. It is also important about the type of football you play to get results. If it is good and enjoyable and you get a good result, then the supporters will be totally pleased.
