"Now we have to move on, of course, we have to celebrate because things in life... football goes very fast. But we have to celebrate because this country it's not always easy for the people. We struggle sometimes in the society and they deserve this. We deserve this and the country deserves this."People gathered in Madrid, Barcelona, Gran Canaria, Pamplona, and other regions across the country, celebrating their team's success.
