Manchester City defender says the adaptation is the key to success in the club’s World Cup

Robin Dias believes that the chances of Manchester City’s success in the club’s World Cup will depend on the speed of adaptation with the different gameplay patterns that will be shown.

The city is heading to the United States this summer in the hope of ending a difficult season at a significant rise in new and expanded symbols in FIFA.

The Pep Guardiola team in Group G is lined with Wydad Casablanca, which they meet in the opening match in Philadelphia on June 18, AIN and Joventus.

Each side will form a different problem and Dias is eager to see how the city will deal.

“It will be a different challenge.”

“This will be a different challenge because you play a difference from different continents in different ways to see the game,” Portugal defender told FIFA.com.

“The adaptation you should do to do this is a large part of success.

“We have taught that when playing with our national teams, but it is different because this is a different space that you do not share in the whole year.

“It will be interesting and that everyone wants to win.”

The global strength of the expanded competition

City will start as one of the favorite candidates, along with Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Flamingo and recently crowned Paris Saint -Germain.

“We have gone to America before at some time before the season and we feel warm,” Dias added.

“It is always a special moment when we play in front of the fans, which may not have a usually the opportunity to watch us while playing live. It is a new competition and a prominent competition.

“Of course, the teams concerned make the competition as large as possible.”

The city’s hopes received a blow earlier today when it was announced Midfielder Matteo Kovacic will not take the trip after undergoing Achilles.
