TVE, which will broadcast tomorrow’s Portugal-Spain friendly, got together the two captains of those teams, who also happen to be teammates on Real Madrid! The two of them are so cute together!!! I can’t wait to see the hug they give each other when they’re doing the coin toss!
Cris: Don’t miss (cracks up)… Don’t miss the Portugal-Spain game on Wednesday, at 10 pm, on la 1.
Iker: Together for the 2018 Iberian candidacy.
(after introduction)
Interviewer: Portugal and Spain are neighbors. Do you all get along like good neighbors in sports, or are there occasional disagreements?
Iker: I think there is a good relationship. In fact, the two football federations are working together to try and land the World Cup in 2018. I hope it will be possible. I think both countries are references for football, they have similar players, Portugal has always been a strong team, like Spain. We hope our dream will come true.
Cris: We’re very excited for this game. We’re playing at home, and it will be a great atmosphere, and I’m sure the stadium will be full so that people can enjoy watching Spain in Portugal. I’m very happy to be called up and playing with a lot of my teammates from Real Madrid.
