In the early morning of June 25th, the European Cup Group B match came to an end. Even though Spain had secured their top spot in the group, they still managed to beat Albania 1-0 with a crucial goal from Ferran Torres, successfully completing their group stage journey.
In a post-match interview, Ferran Torres couldn’t hide his pride and excitement as a national player: “Every time I step onto the field for the national team, it’s an incredibly proud moment. I cherish every opportunity the coach gives me, and I strive to contribute to the team in every aspect, from scoring goals to providing assists and even defending. But team victory is always paramount.”
When asked about equaling the legendary Sala’s record of 20 goals for the national team, Ferran revealed his ambition beyond his age: “I have a clear goal in mind, which is to continue adding my name to the history books of Spanish football. I won’t stop moving forward until those goals become reality.”
Regarding that decisive goal, he revealed the understanding with his teammate: “Before the game, I talked to Olmo about hoping he could send me a through ball that could break through the defense. When that moment came, the ball was under my control, and I almost instinctively finished the shot.”
Looking ahead to the upcoming Round of 16, Ferran seems confident and fearless: “No matter who the next opponent is, I’m ready. We are a very cohesive team, constantly improving, with high morale, and the coach has ensured our fighting spirit remains consistent.”
