Speaking to 3Sports, Dr. Abbey highlighted the importance of keeping the team active during the June break from qualifiers. "Fortunately, the technical team and management will have the opportunity to further work on the team because, in June, we don't have qualifiers. So, we're playing a four-nation friendly in England. And I'm sure it will be an opportunity for the coaches to do some further work on the team.”
