Well, he'd been injured before in one of the warm-up games, so it was touch and goal.
And then he came out to warm-up, and we all started warming up.
I'm there kicking shots at Clem Elder, not Clem Elder, Clayton Hills.
Good shots as well, Shaq, I bet.
I was like, if I'm not starting in goal, I'm going to audition to come off the bench up front here.
And then Kelvin just kind of said to the goalkeeper coach and half to him and half to me under his breath that he can't make it.
And Benaka said to me, like, are you ready?
Mentally, was that any different to knowing you were going to start?
No, mentally, it was better for me.
Because, I mean, this is trying to be a debut at the World Cup.
I would not have slept the night before.
