VIDEO | De la Fuente warns about Georgia
The Spanish oach praised the performance of the Georgians and warned that Spain will have to give their best to reach the quarterfinals of the Eurocup.
The Spanish national team has learned their opponent for the Round of 16 in Euro 2024: they will face Georgia in what promises to be an exciting match. After a group stage with its ups and downs, both teams arrive with the intention of advancing further in the tournament and solidifying their position among the continent's best national teams.
¿Four out of four?
The team led by Luis de la Fuente has made a perfect run in the group stage, winning all three of their matches. With key players like Pedri and Rodri in midfield and an attack led by Álvaro Morata, Spain will look to impose their characteristic possession and ball control style.
De la Fuente emphasized the importance of not underestimating Georgia, a team that has proven to be competitive and capable of surprises. "We will have to be at our best, as we always demand of ourselves, to have a chance of winning this match and moving on to the quarterfinals," the Spanish coach declared after learning that Georgia would be their opponent.
Georgia, the Revelation of the Tournament
Georgia, on the other hand, has been one of the tournament's revelations, qualifying for the Round of 16 against all odds. Under the direction of Willy Sagnol, the Georgian team has shown solid and well-organized football, especially standing out in their ability to defend and counterattack quickly.
Players like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia have been fundamental to Georgia's success, providing creativity and danger in attack. The Georgian national team arrives with confidence and the dream of continuing to make history in their first participation in the knockout stage of the Euro Cup.
