Oyarzabal: Happy with the Victory, and This is Why I Was Substituted

Sunday 21-06-2026
The Spanish national team star Mikel Oyarzabal appeared in a press statement following the 4-0 victory over the Saudi team in the second round of the group stage of the 2026 World Cup.

The player said in his post-match interview: "We are happy to have turned the course of the game, the emotions and the victory..."

He added, "I'm happy that I was able to help the team. In the previous match, I touched the ball less and was less present. I'm always happy and strive for the team to be in the best condition."

He continued: "Have you proven yourself? No, because I always feel appreciated and loved. My colleagues, the coach, and everyone around me in my daily life. That's what I focus on. In football, there will always be talk."

He concluded about his substitution: "Everything is fine. Naturally, the coach decided to give more players some minutes."
