And again, I go back to before Spain played their opening match in Atlanta against Cape Verde. voice-verified

I was there in Atlanta watching them train, and voice-verified

at the player availability, Mikel Moreno was asked by the Spanish press if he expected or hoped to be the hero once again for this national team in doing so, essentially scoring goals the way he had at the European Championships two years ago. voice-verified

And his answer was so humble. voice-verified

He was essentially like, I just want to get into the team. voice-verified

He just wants to play. voice-verified

And so he has accepted his role. voice-verified

I think he's a player that certainly Luis de la Fuente sees as someone that if he comes onto the pitch, voice-verified

Spain probably needs something very specific from him, not just there to possess and do what this team does so well. voice-verified

It's like get in front of goal, get direct, get vertical. voice-verified

And on that goal, I think if anyone who watches Arsenal or watches Spain when he's on the pitch, he's somewhat in the middle. voice-verified

He's a central midfielder. voice-verified

He was right around the six-yard box. voice-verified

He was hiding around the 18-yard box as well. voice-verified

And he was the first to pounce on that spill. voice-verified

And the finish was, he had plenty to do still. voice-verified

He had to get there first and then just pop it up above the goalkeeper into the net. voice-verified

So for me, it was a wonderful finish and a deserved win for him and Spain as well. voice-verified

Yeah, and again, I think you look at that play, you know, Kubarski's shot did have some side spin to it, but you expect a goalkeeper at this level to handle that type of shot. voice-verified

And obviously you would think that one of the best goalkeepers in the world in Thibaut Courtois, had he been there, he would have eaten it up. voice-verified
