The The Under’21 team could not get out of a 0-0 draw this Friday against England in a friendly played by the two finalists of the last Euro Cup in the category in La Línea.
La Rojita deserved to win the game for the chances and for the monopoly of the ball and possession of more minutes, but a granite England at the back and the lack of success They prevented Santi Denia’s men from seeking revenge for the Euro Cup final on the 8th of July. A Spanish team with a lot of novelty in a high-altitude test lacked the light of creation and success to finish chances.
Gabriel Veiga is one of the novelties in the core, along with Barrios and Javi Guerra in an eleven where Samu, Cubarsí and Casadó are missing, summoned with Red.
He Santi Denia’s team took sixth beginning the march with such forward pressure that it prevented England from thinking. It’s the 14th minute Veiga stroked the goal tAfter a good drive by Robert Navarro, but his shot went high, the visiting goalkeeper was sold.
Diego López has become a nightmare for the English defence, enjoying shots from the front. But Spain, despite being the better side and having chances, were unable to ‘get the read’, dull in the final meters against an England that grew before the break, highlighting Jade Bellinghambrother of the Madrid player.
After the restart, the English team came out stronger against a Spain that struggled to get back on track. The changes in Denia have been a good stimulus and the party returns to balance.
From the middle of the second half, La Rojita grew again, creating several scoring opportunities, which highlighted two shots spat by the stick: in the 71st minute with a kick Iker Bravowhich debuted, and in the 90′ another from Hugo Bueno. Until the end, a carousel of changes in a Rojita team that showed good defensive work but lacked the fluidity to generate chances and, above all, success in the final meters.
