"Football Is Played with Feet, Not Language": Zaragoza Trolls Tuchel David Ramos/Getty Images

Winger Bryan Zaragoza, currently on loan at Osasuna from Bayern Munich, recently scored his first goal for the Spanish national team, securing a victory against Switzerland. Following the match, Zaragoza took the opportunity to respond to comments made by his former Bayern coach, Thomas Tuchel, about his adaptation issues in Germany.

Details: Zaragoza’s statement that "football is played with feet, not language" was seen as a retort to Tuchel, who had previously remarked that the winger struggled at Bayern due to not speaking German or English fluently.

Quote: "Football is played with feet, not language. I've never lacked the desire to represent my country. I was on the bench, hungry to get on the pitch, and I showed that. My game is based on dribbling, and every time I get the ball, I try to do just that. The penalty execution was a demonstration of personality," Zaragoza told Football Espana.
