Where did Spain fail, and what should improve in the phase of direct elimination?

The Redstorm was calculated as one of the main favourites to triumph in Russia 2018, but the changes that took place at technical headquarters the day before the World Cup began have influenced the team, writes Periscope.

Spain started the World Cup with a draw of 3:3 to Portugal, then barely defeated Iran by a score of 1:0, and the last little match for Morocco since until the 90th minute it was losing 2:1, but Iago Aspas with a beautiful heel goal equalled the score at 2:2.

What is Spain's weakness?

The defence is certainly one of Spain's most vulnerable points in this world, even though in the defanzi stage they are highly experienced players like the Pique of Ramos and at the gate is David de Gea.

De Gea made a mistake at the start by giving a goal to Cristiano Ronaldo, while Ramos made a gross mistake against Morocco that Spain cost him with a goal.

The middle of Spain, which counts one of the best in the world, did not show the best in the first games, since there were only many passive but not dangerous devices that would endanger the opponent.

In 1/8th of the final Spain plays against Russia.

The Red Power will meet with World Cup host in the phase of direct elimination and is the favourite to switch to the quarterfinals.

Russia kicked off the World with two wins, but in the first serious obstacle, it failed, lost to Uruguay 2.0.

Spain's coach Fernando Hierro is not satisfied with the way his team is playing and has warned of changes in the match against Russia.

Spain in direct elimination matches must show high shape, and besides having a ball, it must create more cases, otherwise it may risk returning home earlier than expected. /Periscope/.
