Captain of the Spanish national team, Sergio Ramos, spoke about the draw against Norway, a came in which the player became Spain's most capped player. One of the subjects that he spoke about post-match was the possibility of going to the Olympic Games.

The Spanish central defender explained that "it is still too early" to talk about the Olympic Games. "I don't want to rush, but whatever player has the opportunity would not say no. Now, I am at my club and my national team, there's a lot of time left and we will see what happens, but it's a very good idea," he explained.

As expected, Sergio Ramos also spoke about reaching 168 international games: "It is always secondary to what is personal and I would always exchange this for a victory. To get to 168 is a merit and a reward. This gives me tremendous pride and I am excited every time that I put on this shirt... nothing changes. I hope to keep doing so for many years to come".

As for the game's progress, he regretted the goal that his team conceded in the final minute of the game: "It was a real shame. It's difficult to play with a national team who were almost out if they lost. They were able to take advantage of the last few minutes with great people in a punctual play."

"The team finished with a point and it's now time to try and win the next match. It was important to qualify and now we have to be calmer," the captain finished.
