Luis de la Fuente, coach of the Spanish national team, acknowledged that both his team and England, the two finalists of Euro 2024, have been the “best” in the tournament, and although he admitted that his players have offered a “better version”, this “does not influence” a match.
“England have great players and are powerful. We have played better than ever before, but that doesn’t matter in a match. They have players so good that they can come on at any moment. We are very excited, we want to keep growing and this group of players wants to play better every day. We need that to guarantee that we can win the final,” said the coach.
The match against England is the final touch to a journey in which Spain had to overcome the big favourites: Germany and France.
“Before the competition began, England and France, plus the host Germany, with their home power making them more dangerous, thought they would be in the top positions. We have already overtaken Germany and France and, if anything, another powerhouse to complete the championship. We are doing very well and from tomorrow we will fine-tune the details for the final,” he added.
Although for coach De la Fuente the final would have been just as complex if the opponent had been the Netherlands, he highlighted England’s individual quality.— EFE
