The image is hard to see.

With the stadium even quieter than during the game,

Sergio Ramos

, along with

Diego Llorente

,

Pedro Porro

and

Thiago

, all under the baton of the readapter,

Lorenzo del Pozo

, made a series of progressions from side to side of the field, which substitutes who do not play and those who do very little usually do.

And of course, since Sergio Ramos had played very little ...

"Whatever you do is going to be controversial,"

Luis Enrique

said

in the preview.

And you are probably right.

It happens that it can be a little less or a little more controversial.

And the way the coach has managed this window of matches with the captain makes it the most controversial possible.

Ramos played 45 minutes against Greece and was traded at half-time.

Later, he did not appear before Georgia.

Yesterday, he appeared in the 86th minute with the sole objective of adding one more internationality.

They already go 180, four of the Egyptian

Ahmed Hassan

.

If Sergio Ramos is indisputable and doesn't have any knee problems, why didn't he play against Georgia and Kosovo?

If he wasn't there to play against Georgia or Kosovo from the start, why play four minutes?

Because those four minutes are not even useful to pick up the rhythm ... Questions to which Luis Enrique answered, in his usual tone and maintaining a difficultly defensible position.

"Ramos? It's very simple.

His attitude is commendable

,

the true leaders are the ones who always add up

, not only in the field. I put those who are better, and Sergio is fine, but he has just come out of an injury. The only thing I ask of the players is that they always follow the example of Ramos, "he explained.

DATA

Just one piece of information: being healthy, as they say he was both yesterday and Sunday in Georgia, Ramos had not missed an official match

for 12 years

.

Specifically, since the match for the third and fourth place of the 2009 Confederations Cup against South Africa, the record has been slowed in Tbilisi.

And the last time that, as happened against Kosovo, he had come off the bench in an official match was in a duel against the

Czech Republic in Prague

, in 2011. "I don't care what image you give or what you may have. It is very evident why he has played four minutes. I want to reward a player who deserves to break all records, "Luis Enrique closed, finally sincere.

He, Sergio Ramos, also said what he could.

"It is always important to add games and achieve the objective, which was to add these three points. Be it one minute, one game, half time ... that is not my decision, it belongs to the coach," he explained to television, and continued.

"Little by little I am finding the rhythm after a major knee injury. The coach was quite clear. Everything that is said about me is taken out of context. The reality is one and the coach said it. It will be with joy and if it is like today, the same. The important thing is to add. "

By the way, from the future he said that there is nothing new.

Was not necessary to.
