“Thank you to everyone who voted for me and to the team for being a part of this.” There is a lot to fight for and a long road ahead of us. The season is just beginning. We work hard, stick together, and are humble. Everyone is moving in the same way, which is very important if we want to reach our goals. The Uruguayan said, “I’m happy with the award and I hope we can keep winning trophies this year.”
