Rita Guarino: "An enriching experience for us"

“We’re very happy to be here and have the opportunity to play international-level matches. Having these kinds of experiences and encountering football cultures that are different to ours will undoubtedly be enriching for us. It’ll be a pleasure to face Chivas tomorrow because women’s football in Mexico has turned professional in recent years and the level has risen significantly. We’ll face Chivas with a young side with players from our Primavera side also bolstering our ranks. We’re still in pre-season, but we’ll prepare as best we can for tomorrow’s match against the current Mexican champions.”

“We’re delighted to be involved in an international tournament, the first time this has happened for our club at women’s level. For us, it’s a source of pride, and we’d like to thank the Club for the big opportunity they’ve given us. Tomorrow, we’ll play our first international-level match and, despite the fact that we’re still preparing for the season, we can’t wait to face Chivas.”
