00:00 First of all, we want to once again convey our pride and our sincerest congratulations to the women's team for the title of World Champions in Sydney.
00:10 A historic milestone, full of meaning, that will mark a before and after in Spanish women's football, inspiring many women with an incalculable triumph.
00:21 For this reason, we want to lament and express our solidarity with the players who have seen their success in vain.
00:29 We want to reject what we consider unacceptable behaviour by Mr. Rubiales, who has not been up to the task of the institution he represents.
00:37 We stand firm and clear on the side of the values that sport represents.
00:43 Spanish football must be a motor of respect, inspiration, equality and diversity.
00:49 It must set an example in its conduct, both inside and outside the pitch.
00:55 From today, we are facing a decisive focus on the future of Spanish football in our path to the 2024 European Cup, with two games against Georgia and Cyprus.
01:04 We would like to focus on sports issues from now on, given the relevance of the challenges we have ahead of us.
