Preparation

[Traxsuit]

Before match day

Get mind and body right.
Remind yourself of the following:

?What is your opposite number doing
this week to improve his chances for the
game and can you be doing more?

If you can convince a yourself you are
working harder than the player you
are playing against, then there is a
greater chance of you out performing him.
Of course physically if you are better
prepared (no late nights or hangovers etc.) then there
is an advantage as well.
