Transcript

00:00Yes, the other day I was thinking about it with my friends.

00:03A few months ago I remember that I was going to Paso de Gracia,

00:05which is the centre of Barcelona,

00:07with my mother and my brother for a walk.

00:10A year ago I was playing in the Youth League.

00:13It was something good, but it was normal.

00:15And now I'm in the Europa League,

00:17in the round of 16, which is a dream.

00:19You can't go out anymore, right?

00:21No, sometimes I try to wear a hood, but I can't.

00:24You put on the hood so that they don't recognize you.

00:27Yes, but sometimes I wear a hood or something that covers my mouth

00:30and they see me through my eyes.

00:32It's incredible, I can't.
