The Spanish Federation also gathered Iván Fresneda's reaction to the assist and the goal he scored in the match against Romania: "For the first goal, I made a cross and the ball went perfectly to Gonzalo Garcia, who is a great forward and didn't miss".
"Then it was a play of understanding and I put the ball in the net (...) I always dreamed of scoring for the national team. I had already done it for my club and now I managed to do it for the national team", explained Iván Fresneda, concluding, as he now returns to Sporting with high motivation levels.
