Oriol Romeu and Cata Coll are the ambassadors of the 22nd edition of MICFootball. The FC Barcelona players attended the tournament’s presentation event at the CosmoCaixa on Tuesday, showing their satisfaction at playing the role of ambassadors for a tournament with a long tradition.
ORIOL ROMEU
“The MIC is a tournament where you take away a unique experience. You can play against boys from other parts of the world, and it allows you to get to know idyllic areas of the Catalan Costa Brava. It is a very beautiful competition. I would compare it to the Olympics at a level where all the people are united. It’s a unique experience for young boys and girls. When you’re that age and you live these tournaments, it’s to enjoy it. The week goes by so fast. You obsess about wanting to win or score goals, but the important thing is to enjoy the friends, the company and the week of football and sport… Then, whether you get a title or not, it will be seen, but these beautiful events must be enjoyed to the fullest because they rarely happen”.
CATA COLL
“I’m from Mallorca and I used to play in a village club and I heard a lot about the MIC. It was a tournament that everyone wanted to go to and you always had this illusion. I’m happy to be here now. That all the boys and girls can enjoy and learn of experience, which is something very important. I wish I had experienced it when I was young. It is an important tournament that everyone wants to win. Not everyone has a week on the Costa Brava. The MIC has been betting on us for years and it is a very important boost, just like having sponsors, hopefully it will continue like this to continue to grow into the people.”
