Whether in the sun like this summer in Germany or in the rain like two nights ago in Córdoba, whether he performs in the strongest line-up or combined, things don't change - Spain dances.
After the unforgettable Euro, the European champion continued to play football that is easy to fall in love with, so he opened the League of Nations with three wins, a draw and no defeats, with eight goals conceded and only one conceded.
Thus, Spain extended its unbeaten streak in competitive matches to 19 games, so the last selection that broke the "fury" of Luis de la Fuente remains Scotland, which won (2023:2) in March 0 in the qualification match for the European Championship.
- What a selection, Spain dominates Europe - wrote "Marka".
After that, 18 wins and a draw - precisely in this League of Nations, when Serbia's bunker in Belgrade endured (0:0).
And while Dragan Stojković's team somehow "got through" on their own field, in Córdoba two nights ago not even total defensiveness, anti-football...
And that against Spain, which played without most of the players who were most responsible for winning the European crown during the summer - Rodrigo, Lamin Jamal, Nick Williams, Dani Olmo, Dani Carvajal, Robin le Norman...
- "La roha" comes out of the October actions stronger than the results it made, because De la Fuente gained width. "Without 12 players out of 26 who traveled to the European Championship and without seven from the Euro final, the coach of Spain showed that in all lines of the team he has players capable of maintaining the level that the continental champion set in Berlin," added "Marka".
There were no mentioned aces, but guys who may not have been starters until now - David Raja, Dani Vivian, Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi, Mikel Ojarzabal, Ales Baena - took their roles in the right way.
- And that is the reality of Spanish football. The coach made a block - there will be more injuries and dismissals, but these guys believe that they are capable of anything, against any rival and in all circumstances. It is Spain that dominates Europe - emphasized the Madrid newspaper.
The quarterfinals of the League of Nations are already in the pocket, and the way Spain is playing, it is unlikely that anyone will stop them on their way to defending the cup in this competition in which they have already established dominance.
