Olmo: “It's a unique sensation to score a goal like this with your national team”

Dani Olmo went through the cameras of TVE after the victory of Spain: “First of all, I want to congratulate Pedro Porro for the debut and the team for the work. We needed this victory and we were very happy that it ended like this. It is a unique feeling to score a goal like this with your team, with your country watching you. It is indescribable score a goal like that. The team's support and emotion when scoring has been incredible. They have played very well. They have a couple of very good players who have hurt us on the counter, but we have known how to counterattack and come back in the second half Luis Enrique told us to continue insisting and that everything was going to come. We are very clear about what we play and that is what we try to do in each game. Sometimes you can't win, like against Greece, but today we played the same and we have achieved all three points. “

The author of the second goal for Spain spoke later at a press conference.

How did you experience your goal?

Jordi's pass has been very good. From the bench and from the field the teammates encouraged me to shoot and I decided to hit him and luckily he went in. It was a very special and very exciting goal.

What did the coach ask you when he entered the break?

He told me to match Jordi and Pedri. And to move between the lines with Álvaro. We had to create danger, to arrive to overcome. And everything turned out very well.

Dani Olmo is one of those who play the most with Luis Enrique, are you surprised by such confidence from the coach?

I am very grateful to the coach for the confidence he gives me in each call and I try to return it. I am enjoying many minutes. We have a great group, we cheer each other on.

Luis Enrique has used him on the wing, on the inside, as a false nine … in which position do you like to play the most?

The coach can put me in any position above and I will try to do my best.

Luis Enrique has said that Spain costs him more with lower-level teams, what do you think?

All selections are difficult. Georgia plays very compact and has come up against it quite a bit. It was hard for us to win, but we will continue to insist and better results will surely come.

The National Team is not in a good moment, how can it be solved?

I think we are fine. Against Greece, the game was not bad at all. They shot us only once on goal and it was a penalty. We deserved to win today's game. Playing as we want, we will win many games.

Why don't we shoot more from the outside, which is a resource that the coach asks of you?

We want to combine too much to get there and it is true that we have to shoot more from afar. The resource has worked for us and we have to use it much more.
