Confirm Pedro, the star midfielder of the Spanish national teamHe dreams of repeating Andres Iniesta’s historic goal at the World Cup, emphasizing the readiness of the Matadors to face the difficult Portugal in the 1/8 round and expressing his desire to face the legend Lionel Messi in the final match.
As for the previously widespread expectation that the Cape Verdean team would become the dark horse of the World Cup, Pedri said in an interview with the Spanish newspaper “AS”.“Yes, it is a very difficult and even World Cup, where many of the theoretically favored teams start losing games, regardless of whether they manage to turn the tide later on or not. The current World Cup is witnessing a very high standard and this is palpable and I have to congratulate the Cape Verde team for having a great tournament and not losing a single original game.”
“I remember the World Cup we won the most. I was eight years old and I remember some matches, especially the final game, which everyone remembers, of course. I choose Andres Iniesta because I have followed him since I was young and focused with him, and along with all that, he made us happy,” he said.

When I met him, I was amazed at his great running ability. He never stops and always passes to his unknown teammates.
On the role and influence of German coach Hans Flick since his arrival at Barcelona and the nature of his requests, Pedri said: “Most of all, he started to put me at the base of the game structure, so that I was constantly in contact with the ball. winning and competing and that’s what really changed him and changed the mentality of the team and we have to thank him because he changed the mentality of Barcelona.”
At the end of his remarks, Pedri talked about the legend Lionel Messi and the possibility of meeting him in the final, saying: “This dream will be great because it will mean we are in the World Cup final and it will be a good sign and I enjoy what he gives now and I enjoyed it before when I was training with him every day and what he can do with this quality. and for me he is the best player in history.”
