De Gea's response to critics: you motivate me! © JumpStory

The goalkeeper of the Spanish national team, David De Gea, received a lot of criticism after the relatively unsuccessful match against Croatia. In the last group D match, Spain let victory slip from their hands and fell behind Croatia. D. De Gea was particularly criticized for letting Ivan Perišić's goal in at the end of the match. The goalkeeper did not cover his corner properly, and that's exactly where the ball went into the net. D. De Gea made several more mistakes in this match, so he faced some harsh words after the game. On his Twitter account, the Spaniard who replaced Iker Casillas in goal wrote: "Only those who lose hope lose. Thank you, critics, you motivate me!" The Spanish national team's goalkeeper faces an even more serious test on Monday. In the quarterfinals, the Spaniards will face the formidable Italy.
