In the preparatory match before the World Cup, Spain could only achieve a draw of 1-1 with Iraq. According to José Vicente Hernáez from Marca, the whole of Spain played badly in this game, and so did Joan García. It seems hard for him to take part in the World Cup matches.The reporter noted that yes, indeed, it would be pure luck if this team reminded of any of the Spanish national teams known to us. This match was the first warm-up match of Spain for the World Cup, but it cannot be considered a training match in preparation for the World Cup.

England’s World Cup schedule: Why it’s a nightmare for English players under Tuschel this summer
auttyTuchel does admit that while he does have some concerns over transfer talk potentially being a distraction to some of his squad during this World Cup, he also acknowledges that this is a natural phenomenon to occur and something he will not attempt to avoid.England’s manager explains that if he did implement a transfer ban on his team, it won’t work because the players would simply speak on the phone to their agents or start purchasing clubs from the comfort of their bedroom.This is why the England boss plans to take a “common sense” approach to his rules when it comes to English players looking to have a medical check done before leaving for their new team during the World Cup.It means this will be music to the ears of the likes of Anderson, Rashford, Stones, or even Morgan Rogers – although Tuchel might have issues with this last one.However, let us try to analyse what this actually means.
