Rafa Nadal: “We must learn not to be so edgy”

Rafa Nadal recognized that the coronavirus crisis it's been hard to fit and he trusted me to teach society things important of life, during a talk on social networks this Saturday with his friend Pau Gasol. “It has been a radical change. It's such a brutal halt that you need of days to adapt and assimilate. Little by little we will return to normal if there is no other relapse that I think would be fatal, “he said this Saturday in that conversation on Instagram.

Nadal pointed out that this bad moment should remind everyone the things that really matter, like health. “We all commit the same mistakes and from this crisis what we must learn is not to be so tense, not to get angry or frustrated by things that have a very relative importance “, he pointed out.

“Sometimes you see people on the street who stop you a little later put a puff. There are situations that are truly unpleasant but within what fits now we face a complicated moment and We are in a country that we live very well. We are very lucky. A quality of life, the vast majority, very acceptable compared to other places, “he added.

In addition, Pau asked Nadal a question from fans, like a about his ritual before games. “My routine is always similar every day. If it is a first round or a final. It gives me security and peace of mind. It is the way I have to focus. My current routine is not the same than 10 years ago, you need more preparation and be more professional in general, “he said.

On the other hand, the champion of 19 'greats' appreciated the behavior of employees and children who were confined to their tennis academy. “They gave a great example. Children between 11 and 18 years old, unable to train. We did not have any contagion and that was the most important thing “, he claimed.

Finally, Pau had to remind Nadal the first time that he they saw. “It was an event by Nike in Barcelona, ​​which we were a jury of a skills competition. You were 16 years old, “recalled the center Catalan, while Nadal remembered with laughter. “I'm sure you won't I said nothing, I was very shy, “said the Balearic.
