Zvjezdan Misimovic has been a standard player in BIH's national team for years. He has the most appearances of all, and he's one of those who can turn the result around in an instant. He wasn't affected by the time difference, and considers this trip to USA before Brazil very useful: "We'll have similar conditions in Brazil, and it's good we're here in order to prepare and adapt to the conditions in Brazil. Everything's good so far."

Regarding the upcoming friendlies he says: "We should take them seriously, it's all about confidence and atmosphere in the team. I'm calm by nature, but when you arrive in Brazil and experience the atmosphere, I could become a little nervous perhaps, but in a good way."

BIH supporters in Brazil will also be there, and their presence will mean a lot to our players. Misimovic's thoughts on that: "Looking at the statistics, we won't be seeing many supporters from Bosnia, but that doesn't bother us because we know there will be many fans in front of their tvs.

According to the preliminary sports forecasts, BIH is one of the potential surprises, along with Switzerland, Chile, Iran and USA. Misimovic on that: "There are always surprised at the big competitions. I'm not fan of the statistics and forecasts, but I hope they are right this time."
