Eliezer Mayenda has been speaking about making his debut for Spain U21s over the current international window. The young striker came off the bench for his country in a 2-2 draw with Czechia, playing for 15 minutes.
AMAZING FEELING
“It was an amazing feeling. It’s my first call-up, so I’m very happy and very proud to have now made my debut for the Under-21s. I’ve been working hard every day, and this is a great reward for that effort. It’s also great news for me and my development.”
BETTER THAN LAST YEAR
“I think I’ve been doing well so far this season, and these things can happen when you keep working hard. I’m just really happy. The season is going much better than last year, and I’m proud of how things are going.”
MOVING UP AGE CATEGORY
“I was with the U17s two or three years ago, but this is my first time with the U21s. It’s a big step in my career, but it is an exciting challenge as I get to learn and compete against some of Spain's best players. I want to become a better player. I’ll try to learn as much as possible every day while I’m there, both in training and in matches. My goal is to keep improving with every opportunity I get.”
Spain U21s next play on the 25th March at 7:30pm UK time versus Germany in a friendly.
