Luis Enrique’s team receives the Czech Republic in Malaga with the aim of making good the mistakes they made in Prague a week ago
Applied students know that summer is used to rest, gain new experiences and most importantly enjoy yourself to the fullest. On the other hand, those who don’t bend their elbows enough during school term have no choice but to do extra homework to make up for lost time while their more privileged friends bask comfortably in the sun. Becoming part of the first of these groups and escaping the penalty that awaits the second is the goal with which the Spanish team receives the Czech Republic in Malaga. An opponent who led Luis Enrique’s team to the drama in Prague seven days ago.
Demonstrating that they have learned the lesson learned in Bohemia’s capital, where Iñigo Martínez managed to make a fire on the horn that threatened to break out, is the challenge for La Roja, who also failed to complete a round match against Switzerland in Geneva, but at least left Servette’s house with three points keeping their options intact to be in the ‘last four’ of the League of Nations, to be played between June 14 and 18 next year.
Once these thorny away games are overcome with an approved scrape, the Spanish team will return to the bull’s skin with the need to get strong on home soil and avoid another slip that will complicate life again in a competition that breaks the sieve. in the second half of September, with two clashes scheduled for La Roja against Switzerland, on the 24th of that month in Zaragoza, and against Portugal, three dates later in Braga.
The Swiss watched on Thursday as the few remaining options to continue the fight were diluted with a goal from Sarabia that pulled Spain out of the swamp, but the Portuguese won with ease in their battle against the Czech Republic in Lisbon and they will continue to round out. tightening the group’s rope with a two-point lead over Luis Enrique’s squad, who aim to leave the grays behind as the World Cup in Qatar approaches.
While Spain maintains the elegant ball handling that characterizes it, competes with everyone and exudes an unquestionable personality, its proposal offers advantages in attack and defense. The Czech Republic burst into Prague with astonishing ease. And Switzerland stroked the boards until the last moment as La Roja got caught up from behind again in the start as the ‘nati’ ordered the melee of the fight. Having a bigger canine would make it easier for him to undo those mistakes, but Luis Enrique’s blockade doesn’t end there in that facet and should prevent the rival from getting facilities to revolt.
The Spanish coach will remain true to his commitment to rotations when he faces the final extension of the course. He believes it’s the ideal way to balance the workload at the end of another strenuous season, keep the whole group on their toes and increase competition in a locker room where hardly anyone is safe from their seat theft.
Morata has remained the only pure striker after Raúl de Tomás left due to illness, but it cannot be ruled out that the waste of energy he made in Geneva will lead Luis Enrique to increase with a false nine in the return of the visit from the Czech Republic. Gijon’s coach recalled that any of his attackers can serve as an offensive reference and Asensio, who played that role in the final stretch of the match played in Switzerland three days ago, is emerging as a candidate.
Depending on how the dispute evolves, there could be minutes for Ansu Fati, the only field footballer not yet dressed in shorts, in a city where Spain has played nine times, with a balance of three defeats and six wins for La Roja, the last of them sealed with a ‘little hand’ to Costa Rica in a friendly match in November 2017.
The Czech Republic, for its part, is being burned at the stake in hopes of adding something to it, after a defeat to Portugal that doesn’t spoil the good moment the ‘narodni tym’ is experiencing. Four points in three games is a significant income for Jaroslav Silhavy’s team. His main concern is the physical ailments of vital players in his kit, such as striker Kutcha, who tormented the Spanish defense in Prague and scored one of two goals for the Central Europeans but had to stop during halftime in the game against Portugal and it is questionable.
