“Always working, regardless of the result, even though in Paris the truth is, I came back very happy, I learned a lot. Of course I have to recognize that I have to continue improving since what I want is an Olympic medal. So right now We have a next Olympic scale competition where we can get back in touch with the best in the world and we are in the world and we are in it, so we are going to keep trying,” Matías mentioned.
“Very grateful too, I also feel that I’m going with a little more security because even though last year was my first World Cup Final, I was a ‘newbie’, I’m already twenty, I’ve already gone up to the second floor, so I feel, to be honest, much more prepared, much safer, more directed , more focused, and happier with what is being presented to me and we are going to continue working for that; right now In ten days I have a new chance of reaching a medal, that’s what I love about sport that despite some result that may have been very good or something not so expected. You always have a new possibility and that is why we train every day to improve our previous version even if we have won the tournament,” he concluded.
