Spain is preparing for the last two European Championship qualifiers!

Veteran coach Bosque led Spain to achieve a breakthrough of "0" in the World Cup immediately after dominating the European Championship and became the greatest coach in the history of Spanish football. However, in the face of the curse of defending the European Cup, Bosque is also under a lot of pressure, trying to break through the curse and show magic again!

In 52 years since the inaugural European Championship in 1960, no team has been able to defend its title. In the past 13 editions of the tournament, a total of 8 champions have been produced: the former Soviet Union, Spain, Italy, Germany, the Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands, Denmark and Greece, but none of them have been able to achieve the miracle of defending their titles. In this European Cup, Spain, as the defending champion and favorite to win the bid, is regarded by fans as the best chance to break this curse!

In the regular position, the national team is full of old faces. Xavi and Casillas, as the core players of the national team, still play the role of big brothers in the team.

In the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Bosque discharged Barcelona's 8-man starting lineup, and Spain's replication of Barcelona's model reached its peak.

Whether it's the Barcelona model, or the classic model that the World Cup-winning team is most proficient at, it's all about midfield control.

The Spanish midfield is full of talent, and any one of them has the potential to become the core of a national team's midfield. But at the Matadors, the absolute heart of the team is undoubtedly Xavi. Tactically, Xavi is undoubtedly the key figure in Spain's control of the game, especially in attack, Xavi's scheduling will be the key to Spain's success.

At least so far, his role in the team has not been replaced. In Euro 08 and the World Cup in 10, Xavi played his best, which became the key for the Spanish team to maintain strong dominance and finally win the cup.

And in this European Cup, Spain will undoubtedly rely on Xavi's performance.

In the previous rounds of qualifying, Xavi lived up to expectations with two goals. Lithuania 3:1 in the fifth round and Spain swept Liechtenstein 6:0 in the sixth round, which was not easy for Xavi, who has been active in the midfield for a long time.

Xavi's return means that Murice's chances of playing are greatly reduced. Although his position does not coincide with that of Mourice, the Spanish midfield is very complete. Harvey, acting as the team's metronome, is responsible for scheduling. And the little white Iniesta is responsible for organizing the attack in the frontcourt, and the two are flawless one in front and one behind.

Coupled with Alonso, the presence of Alonso makes Dad prefer to turn Spain into the executor of the 4231 tactics, Alonso and Busquets are the main backs that can't be beaten, and the two are not only responsible for long-pass scheduling, but also for short-pass defense. And this pair of backs, in continuous practice, has also explored the most effective division of labor between the two. The former is responsible for organizing the team's attack, while the latter plays a role in intercepting and controlling the team's attacking and defensive tempo in the midfield.

The midfield trident composed of Xavi, Silva and Iniesta is also a particularly important part of the 4231 system. Xavi will play the ball at the back of midfield, while Andres Iniesta and Silva will be more on the wing, echoing a centre-forward.

In Bosque's team, the boundaries between strikers and midfielders are not clear, and there are many players who have been moved around by their fathers, and both forwards and midfielders are handy.

The likes of David Silva, Fabre Fabreez and Cazorla, who moved to Malaga, can play as a midfielder as well as a striker in the national team, all in line with the needs of Daddy's tactics.

Removing the two midfielders and the midfield trident, the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Martinez, Cazorla, Chena Mouris, Juan Mata and others have provided plenty of options for Bosque's rotation.

Among them, whether it is Xiaofa, Martinez, or Cazorla and Mata, there is a place in the national team midfield. Muris is new to the country, and integration with the Spanish system is the most inadequate, which means that Bosque will not choose Mouris under many options.

Even if Bosque adopts Barcelona's usual 433 strikerless tactics this season, Silva, Iniesta, Junfa and others can complete the task well, and the luxurious midfield almost ensures the super competitiveness of the Spanish team.

And in such a luxurious lineup, Mouris, who has just entered the national team stage, still has a long way to go if he wants to become a regular main player.

From the perspective of the team's manager, Pellegrini has privately analyzed the development prospects of Mouris in the national team, and I have to say that for a long time in the future, Mouris can only play a supporting role in the midfield.

His only chance to make his mark was when Bosque used the 433 formation, which is a no-striker tactic. Bosque's 433 formation, which has no strikers in the traditional sense, is also known as the 460 formation.

And the requirements of this formation for the front three are fast speed, strong breakthroughs, flexible footwork, and a good shot.

With eight goals in four games in the Champions League and the league, Murice should have given Bosque a reminder of the player's ability to find the back of the net. And this is also the reason why Pellegrini is happy to see it become a success, and Mouris is on full fire before entering the national team.

His most proud disciple should not be buried like that in the national team. Although many clubs don't want their players to overspend themselves in the national team, they don't even have the opportunity to play, which is really depressing enough.

Especially when the club also wants its players to make a name for themselves, the national team is undoubtedly the best and broadest stage!

And the other core of the national team is naturally Spain's international San Cassi.

Casillas is undoubtedly Spain's most reliable captain. At the World Cup in South Africa, Cassie made an impressive two saves from Robben in the final. Having him at the door of Spain is also reassuring to his teammates and fans.

From goalkeepers to main players, a solid main lineup is also an important support for the matadors to reach the top.

The biggest change is probably at left-back. Valencia star Jordi Alba replaces retired veteran Capdevilla. Jordi Alba has been in excellent form over the past season and it is said that Barca are already in contact with Valencia to bring him to Camp Nou next summer.

Unlike Mouris, Alba, who is originally from La Masia, has adapted quickly to the style of the Spanish national team, and his excellent forward awareness and ability to cross have allowed him to lock in the main position of the team, and his performance will also be the highlight of this tournament for Spain. And Alba is also regarded as a star of hope by many Spanish fans.

Regardless of whether he can appear in this edition or not, Murice is in a stable state of mind.

The position of the main force, he naturally wants to get. If he can't get it, he won't suffer from gains and losses. He can grow through the big wars, and there are still many things he needs to understand before integrating into this system.

The day before the game, the Spanish team went to the Czech Republic, No. 8, where there will be a tough battle to be played.

In the draw for this European Championship qualifiers, Spain had average luck. They are in the same group as the Czech Republic and Scotland.

It is worth mentioning that because the traditional European giants are seeded teams, there is no real "group of death" in the group stage of this European Championship qualifiers. In the last European Championship qualifiers, the two World Cup winners Italy and France were placed in the same group. Including the tragedy of England being in the same group as Croatia and Russia, and finally the Three Lions did not qualify for the finals.

Although the Czech Republic and Scotland are fierce rivals, the king Spain has the courage to face any strong opponent!

There are a total of eight European preliminary matches, and here are the last two games left. Muris boarded the final train to the European qualifiers, and although it was likely to be a soy sauce trip for him, he was well prepared for the slim chance of playing.

In March, Spain hosted the Czech Republic and the team struggled hard. In the end, it was the 2 goals of "Huluwa" Villa that ensured the victory of the Matador Army, and finally won the Czech Republic 2:1.

It was in this game that striker Villa surpassed Raul with 46 goals to become the top scorer in the history of the national team.

In the six qualifiers before this, Villa had scored, and his crazy ability to score goals was an important guarantee for the Matadors to win one after another!

In the national team, Bosque's most trusted person in the forward line is Villa.

In the 4231 tactics, Villa played an excellent role as the team's single arrow, repeatedly saviors in key battles.

The players arrived in the Czech Republic in the afternoon, and when it came time to divide the room, Cazorla and Mouris, two team-mates, were rightfully assigned a room.

Ramos wanted to change rooms with Cazorla, but they didn't agree. Cazorla already knew that a certain Real Madrid vice-captain was quite noisy, and he offended this person for the sake of the ace in his own team.

Ramos asked Muris to change with Casillas, who was in the same room as him, and was knocked out by Captain Cassie. It's good to be in a room with him, but he still dares to dislike it?

After being cleaned up by Captain Cassie, Ramos finally got honest. But for dinner, he still came to Murice with a plate, and he also brought his good friend Torres with him.

Shui Ye and Tuoniu, a perfect match in the minds of many fans, naturally have nothing to say about the relationship.

And this time, Ramos is clearly putting more of his mind on this friend.

The "Holy Child" Torres, whose form at Chelsea has been quite poor, has made his situation at the club more and more difficult. Countless fans of the Holy Child, including Torres himself, hope to be redeemed in the national team.

However, the Infant was limited in the process of Spain's European qualifiers, with Fernando Torres scoring a brace in the first round against Liechtenstein, but in the following games, Torres scored nothing.

Ramos saw his friend like this, and he was also anxious for him. He hoped that Torres could score in the rest of the game and would be even happier than if he had scored himself. 166 Reading Network
