Ricardinho’s comments after winning the Futsal World Cup.
victory: “This achievement is amazing. We showed that in addition to being European champions, we wanted more. We wanted a medal, as we said from the start, but when we got to the final, we were great fighters.”
pride: “We were a family of 17 players but 11 million paid in and we felt we could be the best. I hope you’ll be proud of us because we are so proudly Portuguese and we will take futsal to a higher level.”
lament: “I’m sorry I only got one [taça do Mundial]. In Colombia, we were bitter about not getting any medals, and now we wanted to feel the sweetness. We have to congratulate. Let’s give everyone more joy.”
steadfastness: “In my personal case, it was a brutal and individual battle. Six months ago, I was in a hospital bed, suffering the worst injury ever, a brutal surgery. I cried everything, and there were no more tears. Six months later, lifting the World Cup with these champions Great is brutal.”
