After helping the Spanish men's soccer team turn back Morocco 2-1 and successfully advance to the final of the Olympic men's soccer tournament, the team's defensive stalwart Kubasi and goalkeeper Ternus were interviewed by the media to share their feelings and views on the game.
Cubasi: Joy at the comeback win
Kubasi couldn't hide his excitement in the interview, saying, "Especially happy, we are very happy. When Morocco took the lead, we knew we had to go all out on offense, and luckily we did. This game meant a lot to us, it not only tested our strength, but also highlighted our team spirit." Kubasi's statement was full of desire to win and trust in his teammates, and it is this spirit that keeps Spain moving forward.
Turners: tough battle, team first
As the team's last line of defense, Turners had a deeper appreciation for how tough the game was. He commented, "It was an intense game, very difficult and complex, with unusually intense physical confrontation. I can say that it was the hardest game we have encountered so far. But fortunately, our team showed great cohesion and fighting spirit and eventually survived." Turners also made special mention of the strength of the Moroccan team, saying they were fully aware of the threat of their opponents and were well prepared.
The Friendship Behind the Conflict
During the match, there was some skirmish between Turners and Morocco's star player Ashraf, but Turners responded to the issue after the match in a very calm manner. He said, "It's something that inevitably happens on the field and everything is in order. I have a very good relationship with Ashraf and there is no problem between us. We even exchanged jerseys after the match, which is proof of the respect and friendship between us." Turners' words not only showed his professionalism but also embodied another spirit in sports competition - respect and friendship.
