Spain is now in Nantes for the attack on gold

The Spanish women’s soccer team arrived this Sunday in Nantes, where it will play the first two games of the group stage of the Paris Olympic Games just one year after its first World Cup meeting in Australia and New Zealand where it became world champion. .

Spain, who will compete for the first time in the Olympic tournament, trained in Las Rozas Soccer City (Madrid) this Sunday morning and, after the players received treatment, headed to the French city, where they arrived around 9:20 pm

The team led by Montse Tomé will train this Monday for the first time on French soil. The Spanish team will train at the Marcel Saupin stadium at 11:45 am to continue preparations for Thursday’s debut at the La Beaujoire stadium against Japan, the only team that could beat Spain in the World Cup last year.

The Spanish team will then take on Nigeria at the La Beaujoire stadium next Sunday before heading to Bordeaux to play the final game of the group stage against Brazil.

“We are really looking forward to it, we have been here (in Madrid) for many days and to change the routine and live the experience of the Olympic Games is something we have been thinking about for a long time. After the World Cup and the Nations League, we want to enjoy a lot and put on the field everything we did in training,” said Jenni Hermoso before leaving for Nantes in remarks to the Royal Spanish Football Federation.

Alexia Putellas emphasized the ambition of the Spanish team. “It’s a title that I lack, like everyone else. This is the first time we are going to the Games and we are very excited about it. “We want to do something big,” he admitted.

“Always with humility, of course, but we go with confidence knowing that we are the current world champions. Fortunately it is in France, which is very close to Spain, and we hope that many people will come to encourage us to continue winning,” concluded the double Ballon d’Or winner.
