In the opening game of this summer's European campaign, Spain's soccer team won a victory over Croatia, with 16-year-old Wang Yemma taking a well-deserved spotlight. However, central midfielder Fabian Penner was equally stunning, with his outstanding performance and key assists earning him the UEFA Player of the Year title. After the match, leader Andy Fu admitted that Penner had been overlooked for so long simply because his name was too ordinary.
Andy Fu lamented after the game, "Fabian Penner is a versatile player who always plays well at key moments. If his name is 'No' 'Fabian', I believe the fans will keep mentioning this player's name." Fabien Pena, who plays for Paris Saint-Germain, also said, "It's a great relief to win this challenging game, we showed a high level of performance and it's even more exciting to be playing in the Europa League."
Fabian Penner, 28, became the 24th player in the history of the Spanish team to represent his country. With his participation, the Spanish team maintained an undefeated record of 15 wins and 9 losses, becoming an "undefeated team" in the history of soccer.
