“He is very, very good, a tough nut. In general I think I have been able to contain him well. With Georgia he doesn’t play so close to the wing, but rather as a second striker. Even so, we will have to be vigilant,” confessed the Spaniard in ‘As’.
In other words: morality has ‘food’ for it. “Carvajal made a great mark on the man”acknowledged Zielinski, ‘Kvara”s teammate in Naples, after their second confrontation in the Champions League.
For both of them it will be a new scenario. As incredible as it may seem, both are facing their first Euro Cup.
