We have a unique perspective.

You've been to three world cups.

I've been to two world cups.

So I think it's important to talk about preparation, bubble, what goes on in terms of the expectation,

getting to the tournament, finally, what pre-camp looks like.

So I'm curious of what you think it was like for us creating the bubble in space to perform

at the biggest stage.

I mean, first world cup of mine in 2011 in Germany, I feel like it was kind of unknown.

I just like took advice from our older players, you know, and to kind of see the expectations

from them who have previously been there.

And then the second world cup, I feel like I kind of knew then, obviously, and kind of took

my experience into that world cup.

It's definitely a pressure situation because you have to mentally prepare, but you have

all of these outside factors.

You have your family.

You have the expectation of winning.

You have the pressure to play well individually as a team.

You have to make sure you're prepared as an individual, but also as a team.

And the pre-camp kind of sets you up for that.

But when you actually get out on that stage is when you have to then execute it and apply

all of that preparation to the field and that energy.

So it's tough, I'm sure it was for you as well to just like clear out the noise.
