“I am proud but also frustrated. The small details have left us out of the Euro.” The words of Aitana Bonmatí They perfectly reflect the feelings of the fans with the performance of Spain in the European Championship.

She has also been a cursed Euro, with the injuries of the Golden Ball Alexia Putellas and the Silver Ball Jenni Hermoso at the gates of the tournament. An emotional blow for the group and obviously a serious setback for Wild, who had to tweak his plans against the clock, always encouraging his own with the speech that “we have resources to make up for injuries” but aware of the serious mishap he had to overcome. It is not fair to demand the same from a team that has lost its benchmark and its top scorer at once.
Against such a background, he left the father to take a step forward. He did not shake his pulse to take command and lead Spain to their best game. His two MVP’s in the group stage certify that he lived up to expectations and that he knows how to accept the stripes, the same ones that he will also have to accept at Barça starting next week, when the preseason starts.
the father it is present and it is future. A top player who knows that her time has come and who feels ready to be a benchmark for La Roja and Barça.
