I get goose bumps“said Busquets, who is out for Tuesday's grand final against the Netherlands at La Cartuja due to a sprain in his left knee.” Time passes very quickly and you cannot stop to think about what has been achieved, “recalled the Barcelona footballer . “We have done something very big. We have achieved the maximum for an athlete. I want to thank everyone who made it possible. Hopefully we can repeat it because the illusion we have is enormous“Navas pointed out.
