After our 2-1 win against Nigeria All Stars, Kevin Gameiro and Saúl Ñíguez answered the media and this is how they valued the red and white victory in the consolation final of the Carranza Trophy. 

The French forward, making his debut, said, "The most important thing was to win this match to get well to Sunday’s game. It's a great group. Atleti is like a big family. I’m very happy to be in this team," Gameiro continued. 

With respect to the African Group, the midfielder from Elche said: "There is never an inferior team because you get what you see on the pitch. It was a pity that there was so much wind in this tournament because we could not compete with the intensity that we would have wanted, although the feelings that we’ve had have been positive."
