Carvajal Praises This Great Action by Lamine Yamal
Dani Carvajal, right-back for Real Madrid, commented on the goal he scored in the match against Croatia, Spain's first in this EURO 2024, a tournament he had never played in before, assisted by Lamine Yamal, and stated that Yamal gave him a cross that "I only had to push in."
"We are all united, Lamine gave me a ball that I only had to push in. I am very happy with how the match went," he declared in the mixed zone of the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.
The Real Madrid right-back and the talented Barcelona winger, who delivered a perfectly placed ball into the heart of the area, embraced in celebration.
Carvajal is in an incredible moment. He scored a goal in the Champions League final and now, in his first match in a EURO, he sealed the 3-0 victory in a great debut match for Spain, who overwhelmed Modric's Croatia. He couldn't ask for much more.
"Everything is going great. Debut in the Euro finals and a goal," he declared, just before dedicating it to a close friend.
He also commented on the evident imbalance in the stands, with the Croatians, who booed the anthem before the start of the match, filling the stadium with red and white checks.
"It's true that there were quite a lot more of them, but the Spanish fans in the stadium cheered a lot, we heard them a lot, and we felt their support very closely. We thank them for their support, which is very important to us," he concluded.
