Role in the national team

Game against England
The game against England it's going to be very exciting. Everybodythat I know in England will be watching. Even those who don't normally watch football will be watching it. When there is a competition like the World Cup, everybody supports the team.
It's going to be a special game, playing against players like Saka who was my teammate at the Arsenal FC. We have to beat them, right?
