Spain have qualified for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Nations League after defeating Serbia 3-0 on tuesday La Roja was dominant from start to finish in Cordoba, and things could have been even better but for a poor finish.
It was a very strong performance from Spain, which head coach Luis de la Fuente was happy about (via Marco).
“We have to do things very well, as we did today, to be at the level that was played. We played a very complete game. We came out focused from the first moment. We were great in every aspect of the game . When you have success and that attitude, it's hard to fail. We saw a very brilliant Spain, enjoying and pleasing a wonderful crowd.”
For the first time, Spain fielded a starting line-up with no players from Barcelona, Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid. For de la Fuente, this is proof that he has an abundance of talent at his disposal.
“We have to continue to be a team. I really like these situations because they give many players the chance to make themselves known. Players who do not have media recognition, but we know that they are solvent and we know their level. There are very good players Spain. And they're not always the same names.”
