It’s a big game for…
Alexis Sanchez: Who else? With so much speculation surrounding his future at Arsenal, Sanchez told journalists on Friday that his future will be revealed “when we [i.e. Chile] finish” at the Confederations Cup.
Could we be in for a dramatic post-match come-and-get-me plea or was Sanchez speaking more generally?
What have they said?
Arturo Vidal, Chile midfielder: “We have beaten Argentina and Portugal, the European champions, if we win on Sunday, we will prove we are the best team in the world.
“We have reached this final with our spirit and attitude - this is a waiting room for the World Cup - and if we win on Sunday that will show where we are.”
Joachim Low, Germany head coach: “A lot of work has gone into our wins. We couldn't pre-empt reaching the final as some players had little experience and you couldn't calculate how they'd react.
“We've become a team over the last few weeks. They know there is work ahead and they are ambitious enough to beat Chile.”
