At 0:00 am on August 6th, Spain defeated Morocco 2-1 in the Olympic men’s football semi-final to advance to the final. After the match, Spain Olympic coach De la Fuente gave an interview.
De la Fuente said: “We know that Morocco is a very strong team. They scored four goals against the United States, they have talented players who want to perform, and they fielded their strongest lineup in the game. However, we brought out the best in our players and turned the game around. Morocco gave their all in the match, but I still want to congratulate them.”
“At halftime, I gave the players some suggestions, but the players are the ones who put the plan into action. We can’t protest against the referees. Our 22 players performed very well, just like we saw in the European Championship. Even though we have to play every other day in 30-degree weather, they know the importance of the match, and they did a great job.”
“After the final whistle, I was very happy, all the doubts about the match were gone. At that moment, I let out all the tension. I’m happy for the whole team, we are a close-knit team. I’m really happy for everyone. Now we need to continue to improve on the details to get the gold medal.”
