Spain followed up their demolition of Georgia with a 6-0 win over Cyprus on Tuesday to close the gap on runaway Euro 2024 qualifying group leaders Scotland, while Italy defeated Ukraine to move above them in Group C.
GRANADA, Spain: Spain's men's coach Luis de la Fuente said he and his team would "just stick to football" as he was bombarded with questions on Monday (Sep 11) about the resignation of football federation (RFEF) president Luis Rubiales, announced a few hours earlier.
Spain have called up Barcelona forward Ferran Torres and Villarreal midfielder Yeremy Pino to replace the injured Marco Asensio and Dani Olmo for their Euro 2024 qualifiers against Cyprus, the Spanish federation said.
Alvaro Morata reckons Spain are finding their shooting boots - and can still overthrow Scotland to win their Euro qualifying group.
TBILISI, Georgia : Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal became Spain's youngest international and goalscorer aged 16 years and 57 days as he made his debut away to Georgia in their Euro 2024 qualifier on Friday.
TBILISI : Spain men's coach Luis de la Fuente tried to avoid questions on Thursday about the scandal sparked by football federation boss Luis Rubiales' unsolicited kiss of player Jenni Hermoso after her team's victory in the Women's World Cup.
TBILISI: Spain coach Luis de la Fuente insisted he has “blind confidence” in Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal without revealing if he would make history by playing Friday’s Euro 2024 qualifier against Georgia. The 16-year-old would become Spain’s youngest ever player if he features against either Georgia or Cyprus next Tuesday. But De la Fuenta did not reveal whether the youngster would play as Spain bid to get their European qualifying campaign back on track. “Lamine appeared very good to me watching him on television, but working with him you realize even more his potential. He seems even better,” De la Fuente told a press conference on Thursday. “Currently, he’s a very important player for us, he’s here on his own merit.
GENEVA: Spain return to national-team soccer this week amid turmoil since the men’s and women’s teams won international titles in the last games they played. The first two days of Spanish men’s preparation for a European Championship qualifying game Friday in Georgia started with captain Álvaro Morata reading a statement of support to the Women’s World Cup-winning players and denouncing “unacceptable behavior” by now-suspended federation boss Luis Rubiales. Off-field distractions continued Tuesday: an apology to world soccer for Rubiales’ conduct at and since the women’s final in Australia by his interim replacement Pedro Rocha, and firing beleaguered women’s team coach Jorge Vilda. Men’s team coach Luis de la Fuente — who won a UEFA Nations League title in June just months into the job — has kept that job despite also being a longtime federation ally of Rubiales. Unlike Vilda, De la Fuente did not face a walkout by his entire coaching staff and a player mutiny. Only Real Betis striker Borja Iglesias has said he won’t play for Spain until “things change.” Still, those Nations League victories over Italy then Croatia in the final, in a penalty shootout, seem a long time ago and the Group A table in Euro 2024 qualifying leaves fourth-place Spain lots to do. Group leader Scotland won two more games in June, after stunning Spain 2-0 in March, and are eight points clear ahead of playing last-place Cyprus on Friday.
