It pains me that a figure like Lamine had to go through that. The image Spain has projected is not the one I know. It's a disgrace. Lamine didn't deserve what he went through.
Germany dominated the first half, creating numerous chances but only managing to score once through Kai Havertz's penalty after a handball. Despite their wastefulness, they maintained pressure throughout the match.
Gabriele Borsa was initially not called up for the game but was asked to play at the last minute due to another injury within the camp. He started the game and scored a hat-trick, showcasing his talent and leaving a lasting impression.
Left-footed centre-backs are a rarer breed, and Raux-Yao is a colossus of a defender now entering his prime at the age of 26. Having established himself as the most dominant aerial force in Austrian football, the centre-back has caught attention for his passing ability, too.
Playing in the Premier League has always been a dream of mine, and I'm incredibly excited for what's ahead. I know there's still plenty of work to do, and pushing myself every day and improving is something I'm fully committed to. We have some special things ahead of us at Sunderland, and I'm looking forward to taking this journey together.
