Euro Qualifiers Georgia vs Spain
Start time: 09-09 00:00
On Monday night, Morata, the captain of Spain's men's team, read a statement on behalf of the team, claiming that Luis Rubiales (president of the Spanish Football Federation) was "outrageous" in his actions after the Women's World Cup final.
Earlier, 81 Spanish women's football players announced their retirement from the national team. What the hell is going on that makes it so hot?
Spain's "internal worries"
The story began with a kiss and then snowballed into a global scandal with an impact beyond football itself.
The president of the Spanish Football Federation kissed Jenny Hermoso on the lips at a ceremony following the women's triumph, whose goal in the final helped Spain beat England 1-0.
Subsequently, Hermoso claimed that the kiss was forced. She even made a lengthy statement on the same day, talking about the disrespect the president of the football association had for her, and feeling vulnerable and a victim.
A week later, Ruviales was suspended by FIFA for investigation.
The crux of this issue is that the president of the Spanish Football Federation kisses the cheek in front of other players, and when he arrives in Hermoso, he kisses the lips directly...
Last Saturday, 11 coaches and technicians who had held positions in the Spanish women's team resigned.
Subsequently, the coach of the Spanish women's football team, Jorge Verda, issued a statement saying that he was "sorry" that the actions of Rubiales (president of the Spanish Football Federation) had tarnished Sydney's victory and resigned firmly.
Then, a joint letter signed by 81 Spanish female footballers was released: if the Spanish Football Federation did not change its president, they insisted on refusing to participate in international competitions.
This week, Spain men's soccer coach De la Fuente also issued a statement in the hope that the relevant agencies will quickly address the damage to the global image of Spanish football.
And that's not all, the men's team has also withdrawn from the national team.
Real Betis' main striker Iglesias has publicly stated that he will not play for Spain under the current leadership of the Football Association and has withdrawn from the national team.
The men's manager has temporarily recruited Barça star Yamal, who is only 16 years old...
What is certain is that the problems within the Spanish Football Federation are quite serious, especially after this scandal came out.
Spain's "external troubles"
Spain has raised it several times this year, since the World Cup was eliminated by the dark horse Morocco, former Luis Enrique resigned, and the current De La Fuente has taken office, he is Spain's fifth manager in the past six years.
De La Fuente's tactical approach is different from that of previous managers, and he does not even prioritize passing and considering attack. For example, abandoning Torres and Hermoso brought in Osasuna's Garcia to solid defense.
Spain's strategy has always been no striker, and he brought in La Liga big centre José Lu in his first class, scoring less than two minutes in the European qualifiers against Norway in March, but Spanish fans thought it was short-lived.
Although Spain beat Croatia on penalties in the UEFA Nations League final, the new Spain is still criticized. Here's a look at their four races this year:
(1) Against Norway without Haaland, Spain had the advantage of possession after taking the lead, but they were never able to show the crushing momentum of other strong teams. On the contrary, Norway has repeatedly played threatening attacks under Odegaard, and if the referee had not missed the penalty, Spain may not have won.
(2) Against Scotland, De La Fuente made 8 changes to his starting line-up, and one of the 8 new players was Tottenham defender Polo, whose 6-minute mistake allowed Scotland's Scottish Scottish McTominay to score easily!
Spain's positional battle in this game was swept by Scottish textbook defensive counter-kicks, with a ratio of 75% to 25%, but Spain created 0 chances and expected 0.79 goals.
(3) Against Italy, simply because Italy is more delicious than Spain, the former is difficult to organize even a complete attack, and the lost ball cannot be understood. If Zaniolo hadn't been yellow carded in stoppage time, I wouldn't have known he was on the pitch.
(4) Against Croatia, in the face of the opponent's intensive defense, Spain only hit the opponent's goal with 2 kicks in 120 minutes, and these two shots still relied on corner kicks, not sports battles...
So I personally think that Spain's problems are still unsolved - the striker is weak, and high school striker Morata has not scored since the World Cup.
In today's world football, at least eight out of ten weak teams are on the bus. If your center is not powerful, there is no means of "hard solution".
Spain is 9th in the world, but it has been beaten as the "king of Pingxi", and when it encounters anti-opposition teams such as Scotland and Sweden, it often has no way at all, and there is no stable ability to score points.
Most units have now retreated from the initial 6th gear to 5th gear, and support for Spain has weakened, which is understandable.
Georgia has produced a number of super-talented players in recent years.
One of the leaders is undoubtedly Kvarac Heria, who played for Napoli, who contributed 12 goals and 10 assists in 34 games last season to help Napoli win the Serie A title and is already a top-five winger in the world!
In addition to him, Ligue B goalscorer King Mikotadze, La Liga Valencia core Mamardashvili, and a number of players who have played for the Austrian Premier League, the Polish Premier League and the Svar Super League are on the list.
In fact, the Georgians played really well against Spain last time at home. Spain had a seven-stop advantage away from home and eventually relied on Olmo's super long-range shot to get three points (93 minutes to kill).
Therefore, today's Spanish professors are still not optimistic, Bo Leng! Expect Georgia to at least outperform the data.
Well, that's it for today's game, what do you think of this game?
I am a professor, if you like it, just move your fingers to pay attention to it, and then like it!
For other competitions today, the professor will still send text analysis to everyone in the evening.
If there is anything unclear, you can ask me, "the professor knows a ball", we will not disperse!
