"Bayern Munich are not invincibles" claimed a defiant Tigres UANL head coach Ricardo Ferretti on the eve of the FIFA Club World Cup Final against the German powerhouse. Bayern defeated Egypt's Al Ahly 2-0 in the semi-final, while Tigres beat Brazil's Palmeiras 1-0. Al Rayyan, Qatar. 10th February 2021. #ClubWC #FIFAClubWorldCup #Tigres 0:00 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ricardo Ferretti, Tigres UANL head coach: (about Bayern Munich being the favourites ahead of the final) "The Brazilians (Palmeiras) also said many things, but in the end we were the winners. They also were the favourites. As for ourselves, in our minds we are never the favourites because we don't think we are better than anyone. All this talk about a team being the favourite doesn't come from the players or the managers, it is something that comes from you - the press and the supporters. But the average footballer doesn't think they are better or worse than anyone else. And we are like that. So, we can talk as much as we want, but first let's start and play the match, then after we can have a chat." 0:47 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Guido Pizarro, Tigres UANL captain: (about Bayern Munich being the favourites to win the title) "In this group, we always want to achieve the best result possible and on Thursday we have the chance to play the last match and win the title. We will do whatever we can to get a victory. We are confident in what we have to do and in the plans we prepared to achieve this result." 1:15 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ricardo Ferretti, Tigres UANL head coach: (about how he thinks Tigres can beat Bayern) "They are a team used to victories, like ourselves, but that doesn't mean they are invincibles. They lost like we lost, they won like we won. I think they are a solid team like ourselves and as always when we meet a great team, we have to play at our best. And I think we are up to the task."
