At 03:00 on July 15, Beijing time, in the Euro Cup final, Spain defeated England 2-1 to win the championship with a perfect record. After the match, Rodri, the Spanish national team player who was named the best player of the tournament, gave an interview.
Rodri said, “This is a wonderful day, and I am sure it will be the best time of my career. Although the journey was difficult and winding, we became the Euro Cup champions. Spain is the team that has won the most championships, and our predecessors have shown us the way. As long as we work hard, we will surely be rewarded.”
“This may have been the toughest tournament ever. Spain defeated four world champions, and we made history. However, being in this half of the draw was also our luck, which shows the champion’s mindset of our team. This mental strength is cultivated step by step. Many of us were once U19 or U21 champions, and the head coach knows exactly what he needs to do.”
“Our head coach, Luis de la Fuente, now we should talk about his achievements. He led us to conquer Europe bit by bit. We are Spain, and we deserve to be the Euro Cup champions. This feeling is so wonderful. I call on all Spanish fans to take to the streets to celebrate. Today is a day for us to be proud.”
“We have made history, but we will not rest on our laurels. We are talented and gifted, and we will continue to move forward.”
