The time has come to say goodbye. After a week that has seemed eternal for the footballers of the women’s team, it is time to give yourself some space and return to your clubs. After dinner after rout against Switzerland, the players said goodbye to return home this Wednesday. Before, still at the Nuevo Arcángel stadium, Aitana Bonmatí was the last to appear in the press room. She did it “exhausted” -she confessed-she after a few days that have been like a roller coaster.
“It hasn’t been an easy week, but we are professionals and we have done it like professionals,” said the author of two goals in the second game for Spain in the Nations League. “We are happy to be able to celebrate the World Cup and the match with the fans. It is true that it was a heavy result, but at the level of the game we can improve. It was a slow match, with little rhythm, what we are used to, but There are also games like this and it’s good that we can move forward in this way,” he added.
Assume the responsibility
However, although tensions have decreased as the days have passed, the first hours of this concentration still remain in the captain’s memory. Although now “everything is fine, at first it was all a bit strange, strange because of how the call was. I remember,” he added, “the first day when we came to the concentration everything was very complicated, we saw everything very black, we were not even able to to train or to play and despite that we have won both games and in what way. But things happen and that’s it. We have stayed and when you stay you have to assume all the responsibility you have and work to win,” he stated.
“I hope that we never have to experience this situation that we have experienced again because it is exhausting, with the feeling that you always have to focus on things outside and not just on football. We want to be professional footballers and nothing more. It is It is true that our generation, like many others before it, has had to fight so that the next generations have better conditions and, if that happens, then we will leave a good legacy and we will be proud of everything we have worked for, despite not having been able to to be 100% focused on football,” claimed Aitana, who confessed that he wanted to return to the Barça dynamic and give the situation some air, although he demands that, at this time, progress continues.
Overcome adversity
“It is clear that there has been a lot of talk with the different organizations [CSD y Federación], there have been agreements and commitments, so I hope that we all join together so that this does not happen again and so that we can give a better image to the world. “We are world champions, we have to give that image of world champions and a developed country, not a country… I don’t know how to even describe it.”
They have fought both on and off the field, but the locker room has been able to overcome these situations, which did not seem easy. When they arrived in Oliva, the future looked complicated, dark. Now, after meetings and meetings, the situation has improved, tension has reduced and the parties have committed to understanding each other.
