De La Fuente: This is my opinion about Kroos, and the match will be equal

The Spanish national team coach, Luis de la Fuente, appeared in a press conference to talk about facing Germany, on Friday evening, in the quarter-finals of the European Nations Cup.

The Spain coach said : “It will be an even match. It could have been the European Championship final and it will be an equal match at the football level. Germany always starts matches in a really strong way, so obviously we will try to stop that, and we will try to take the initiative and give everything we have from the first minute.”

He added: “Of course I spoke a lot with Olmo and Grimaldo, who have experience in German football. They always tell us about certain aspects of German football. But we know their national team.” Well and all the players are ready, there may be one or two changes, but the game plan will be the same.”

He continued: “We are always thinking about doing our job if we cannot “We will try to minimize its strengths and exploit its weaknesses. We have similar characteristics. We are fully committed. We are ready to go there and try to win. We feel a great responsibility and are very focused.”

He added: “Toni Kroos is a world-class player. One day, these players retired from football, but football never left them. He brought with him a lot of talent, control and charisma. When footballers have this type of player next to them, it's contagious. It's a shame he's retiring. I'd like to keep watching him play."

He continued:" Tomorrow's winner will be a candidate to win the title? There are other strong teams in other matches. The closer you get to the final, only the best remain. "Nothing is free here. In football, the best team does not always qualify. I don't know if the winners are favorites to win the title, but we see ourselves as a team that is a very strong team that has the ability to fight for it."
