Technical director of Cavalier, Rudolph Speid, admits he’s concern that his players may be a bit star-struck when they take on Inter Miami in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup tie at the Chase stadium this evening at 8
Inter Miami squad include, eight time Ballon d’Or winner and Argentina captain Lionel Messi, Uruguayan forward Luis Suarez nicknamed “El Pistolero” and Sergio Busquets defender for 2010 World Cup champions Spain.
Speid says his young squad grew-up idolising and emulating some of these players.
He says there are mental techniques that they are using to prevent his players from being overwhelmed by the thought of playing against such global stars.
