\u201cKey. Yes, the truth is that the coach has given us the key to not doing anything strange. He is very happy. We are all very happy, and well, a priori, people did not see us as favorites. We have to continue working like this, and hey, I already told you that it is the game against Albania, but the round of 16 is not for two days. It\u2019s going to be a bit like that,\u201d he explained to Cadena SER.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, as soon as I entered the dressing room. First, my colleagues applauded me, the truth is that I am very happy. And as soon as I picked up my phone, there was a message from him; he sent me a voice message, and the truth is that he told me that I have taken the Williams surname around the world of football.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other social media users also joined in the praise and commended Nico for his incredible performance.<\/p>\n
