“Our team has everything to win. We haven’t been to a World Cup in 52 years and we are lucky enough to play against Brazil. It’s amazing for us, what a great opportunity, but we’ll need to rise to the challenge. We showed that we deserve to be here at the World Cup. We didn’t steal our position here," said Haiti coach Sebastien Migne. 

“We know what we have to do. We know that we didn’t have a good first match, but what we can expect is that we’ll be really committed and we’re going to do our best to win. All matches are difficult regardless of who you’re playing, there’s no easy match. We cannot make any mistakes. They’re a physically strong team," said Brazil defender Gabriel Magalhaes.
