Cucurella had a cheeky grin on his face as he explained how he had jibed at his teammates
Cucurella then added that he had tried to further wind up his English teammates by pretending not to recognise the parcel when it arrived.
“(I said) I’ve got a package – but I hadn’t ordered anything!” he explained, showing how he had feigned shock as he opened the trophy.
Brancano could barely catch his breath for laughing but he too joined in with the impressions, pretending to be Cucurella.

“Let’s see, what is this?” he said in mock disbelief. “The Euro Cup in your f**** face!”
It is not the first time that Cucurella has been something of a joker.
His comments come just days after he joked that referees were being harsher on him since his European success.
Speaking to Spanish publication COPE, he was asked about whether he believes he is facing more attention from officials and why he thinks he is getting more negativity from fans.

“They jump on me quickly, especially when we play away. It’s normal, we won, I was involved in the goal, I’m playing at their home.
“It’s normal, they’re hurt.”
Speaking seriously, Cucurella also admitted he certainly does not underestimate the impact the tournament has had on his life, explaining it was something that got him through the difficult times.
“In the end you always have a bad day and in the end you say, well, I won the Euros, so it’s quickly resolved,” he added.
“In the end it’s still normal, your day to day life, but it’s true, you have more impact, many more people know you, in the end being European champion I think is a historic thing and in the end you’re always going to take it with you.”
