National team players remember the World Cup in South Africa

July 11, 2010, at Soccer City in Johannesburg (South Africa), will always be a date and a place marked in the history books of Spain. It was the day that Andrés Iniesta hooked the 'jabulani', crossed, to conquer the first World Cup in the history of the Spanish team. Sew the first star on top of the shield. A moment that already happened a decade months ago.

It is because of that, at the end of 2020, exactly on December 31, the documentary will be released “South Africa 2010. 10 years after our star”, courtesy of Amazon Prime, which has unpublished images never seen before. To which the current international players from Spain, led by Luis Enrique, have been able to exclusively view the same report. Sergio Ramos, Sergio Busquets and Jesús Navas, present on that historic date, were the authorized voices to speak about their experience, both of the World Cup, and their impressions of the documentary.

The World Cup is part of history and no one is going to erase it. Over time we give it even more value“, declared Ramos, captain of the national team who, precisely, played 177 games for Spain, becoming the European with the most caps ever.” Here is everything. Everything we are and everything we wanted to achieve. On a personal level there is a phrase that I say in the documentary when I speak to 'Busi': I hope we will repeat it again“added the one from Beds.

“It was a unique moment and being able to relive it has been wonderful. This shows the team that we were. 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.
