Fabian Ruiz Eyes 'Historic' Euro 2024 Triumph Following Spain's Comeback

Fabian Ruiz aims to achieve something historic for Spain after securing a spot in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals with a 4-1 win over Georgia in Cologne. La Roja initially trailed due to Robin Le Normand's own goal in the 18th minute but managed to turn the game around, marking the largest comeback victory margin in the competition's history.

Rodri equalised in the first half, and Fabian Ruiz, Nico Williams, and Dani Olmo completed the scoring. Spain now faces Germany in an eye-catching quarter-final match. Ruiz praised his team's resilience and is already looking beyond their next opponent. "We played a great second half; the team gave everything on the pitch," said Ruiz. "Germany? Any opponent is difficult. We know what a great team they are, that they play at home... but we are confident in ourselves, we are very excited, and we want to do something historic for our country."

Williams netted his first European Championships goal for Spain and provided an assist in an impressive performance. Like Ruiz, he is focused on winning the tournament after making it four wins from four games. "We are very happy to get through to the quarter-finals, very excited," he said. "Step-by-step, we have shown that we are a great team and if we continue at this level, we can do great things."

Their initial setback came from an unintentional own goal by Le Normand. However, the team rallied around him, showing strong unity and support. "Their goal was a mistake; it was unintentional," Williams added. "We all cheered [Spain's own goalscorer] Robin [Le Normand] on and, in the end, we are all pleased and happy."

Facing Germany will be challenging as they are known for being tough competitors. Williams acknowledged this but expressed confidence in Spain's capabilities. "[Germany will be] very difficult; they're a tough nut to crack," he noted. "But we have a wonderful, well-structured team and if we play at this level we can win."
