Match
\nMarquinhos Xavier and Miguel Rodrigo are good friends who hold tremendous respect for one another. They went out for a coffee in Bukhara on Wednesday and were all smiles throughout. Despite the fact their Brazil and Thailand sides are already through to the last 16, they\u2019ll have their game faces on when they collide for their final first-phase assignment. Pito and the Sele\u00e7\u00e3o require only a draw to secure top spot, while Muhammad Osamanmusa and the War Elephants need all three points.<\/p>\n
Quotes
\n\u201cWe have faced Croatia, and now we are going to play against a different kind team. Thailand are a bit faster. It’s important to play these different types of games, it helps us improve and makes us a bit more prepared for the knockout phase.\u201d
\nMarlon<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will go into the game against Brazil to compete, to show that we can face the big teams. Of course we\u2019ll probably lose, but we will take positive things from it. It\u2019s the type of game that any player or coach wants. With all due respect, but we also try to have fun and play.\u201d

\nCuba (78th)<\/p>\n
Match
\nIt\u2019s do or die for the Mini Blazers and Los Leones del Caribe. Their only shot at going through is to win, while they may need to win big. Croatia will entrust Franco Jelovcic and Dario Marinovic with keeping the dream alive, while Cuba will look to in-form Cristian Valiente and Iduan Martinez as they go for broke. A goal-fest ensues.<\/p>\n
Quotes
\n\u201cWe have already shown that we are a gritty team. We have lost two games, but our focus is on getting the three points against Croatia. They are a completely different opponent, but we have to focus on playing our game. Nobody here has given up on anything yet.\u201d

\nCosta Rica (31st)<\/p>\n
Match
\nThe stakes are sky-high. Costa Rica or Uzbekistan would probably go through with victory. One of them could sneak through with a draw, but they\u2019d need Paraguay to pummel the Netherlands. Slippery winger Khusniddin Nishonov has been a bright spark for injury-stricken Uzbekistan, while Minor Cabalceta is Costa Rica\u2019s go-to player. Do not miss this one.<\/p>\n
Quotes
\n\u201cWe were the underdogs in our two games. We competed well in both and drew one. Now we need to beat Uzbekistan, it won\u2019t be easy, but I believe we can do it. The will have the supporters behind them, but we\u2019re ready for it.\u201d
\nYosel Leon, Costa Rica winger<\/p>\n
\u201cOur supporters have been incredible. We want to say sorry for them. Costa Rica are a strong team, it will be a very tough game, but I believe we will win. We will give it 2,000 per cent.\u201d

\nParaguay (13th)
\nNetherlands (36th)<\/p>\n
Match
\nParaguay have already pocketed top spot in the pool. The question is whether Carlos Chilavert will minute-limit stars such as Arnaldo Baez and Javier Adolfo Salas. The Netherlands have done themselves proud on their return from 24 years in the FIFA Futsal World Cup wilderness. Three points and Manuel Kuijk, Ayoub Boukhari and Ismail Ouaddouh will be through.<\/p>\n
Quotes
\n\u201cThis is the first World Cup for all of us. There\u2019s a lot to get used to, but we\u2019ve put in two good performances and given ourselves a chance. Paraguay are obviously a very good team with a lot more experience than us, but we will do out there with the same determination and belief.\u201d
\nIsmail Ouaddouh, Netherlands pivot<\/p>\n
\u201cWe definitely want to win. We want to go through with nine points. Our target is the semi-finals and nine points would add to our confidence.\u201d
