No matter how great a squad is, a competition like the Champions League is not easily won.
It is extremely difficult to get a medal at the World Championships, even more than the Olympics. And when one is not 100 per cent prepared, it is next to impossible to win a medal there.
I know it's more five-star now than it was then, but it's still a difficult tour. In the same way as India and Pakistan players find it difficult coming to Australia. People sometimes have difficulty believing that.
The woman's tour is very tough for all of the players.
The schedule is tough in tennis.
As a player it was always not easy to play against Australia. It was always very difficult.
With the Premier League, you can afford to lose a couple here and there, but it's a tough competition, a cup competition.
First-round matches are always tough.
At Mestalla, with their support, it's always tough. I don't remember any easy game.
