Go back to a list after the injury, how are you? Was there fear of not being summoned again?
I am very happy, I was injured for two months and this new call was a surprise. Fear is not the word, I am aware of the competition out there. I take every opportunity they give me and I hope it continues to be part of these lists.
At only 21 years old, she shares a dressing room with the best in Spain. Did any of them catch your attention?
It is not easy to single out one. He already followed them when he did not come to the National Team. If you already see them as good from the outside, from the inside I won’t even tell you. What surprised me the most is the human quality.
How is it defined in the field? How do you feel about Vilda’s praise?
I read the game well, I have a good association with my teammates. I like that kind of game. I appreciate it, but I always have my head on the ground. They are flattery, but my head always thinks that it can be improved.
How were the moments of injury?
When I came in the summer I started very well at the club. It’s true that the injury upset me, but I’m getting better feelings.
Never had an injury, you learn to value everything. In the team I am supported by several colleagues, I am in Madrid with my partner, I have my sister and my nieces close by.
He was very young and the call came from Real Madrid …
He caught me in quarantine, it was kind of weird. I had to make the decision in a little bit … and think about being away from home. But I had no doubts. Madrid is a winning club, new challenges had to be faced.
He comes from a football family …
My father was a coach in semi-professional football, he was in Celta B, in Pontevedra, in Cultural … and my brother also played, I spent the day on the field in the field. I did a lot of sports, but it was what I sucked the most. It was a bet for both of us. My brother played for Celta, he went with the National Team. But he was very unlucky. I’ve always said it, he’s one of the best players I’ve seen. Men’s professional football is more complicated. If you have bad luck, you do not arrive.
Was your brother close to signing for Madrid?
There was interest, I don’t remember if he ever did the tests. I was very little. Those of Villarreal I do remember that he did.
How did your family handle it?
They have always supported me. I started in a club, in Pontevedra. In the sports group. From the age of five I played with boys until I was 16 years old. They always treated me great, I didn’t have any problems.
And later?
I’m going to Deportivo, I was there for four years. They bet a lot for me, within the bet they made at the club for Galician players. The first two years I was in a residence. I was alone, my family was in Pontevedra. People treated me very well. We were promoted and that season Madrid called me.
From a very young age she was called by Spain …
The first call was still in Pontevedra, it was with the U-16, he was still with the boys. It seems strange, but even though we are a football family, we are not talking about football so much. People miss it. They are not the typical parents who are crushing, or saying everything to their daughter. It will be professional training. They are more to observe, if I need any advice I ask.
Now there are several of you who have reached the absolute …
Laia, Nerea, Athenea … we still don’t believe it. When we were in the inferiors we dreamed of reaching the absolute. It is mind-blowing.
How did you experience the first World Cup in Spain in Canada?
I remember that the games were late, I watched the games. I dreamed of being there, but I couldn’t imagine it. I saw it far away
And the Eurocup next summer?
I see it close because I am living through the qualifiers, but I am aware of the competition there is.
