ST PETERSBURG (Reuters) - Spain keeper Unai Simon said he has gone through a torturous process trying to comprehend his tremendous error against Croatia at Euro 2020 but showed gratitude to his team mates, including fellow keeper David de Gea, for lifting his spirits. Sincerely, I've seen it six or seven times and I can't find an explanation, I just controlled it badly," Simon told a news conference. "I don't know how many times I've tried to control the ball in my life and the ball had never gone in before. "He calmed me down a lot, the fact he came over to support and encourage me helped a lot. When a goalkeeper like that comes over to you and says that to you all you can do is improve and go again," Simon added.
