Eurocopa Spain looks very bad
Opinion Spain, an Our Father before a goal
With one goal and two points in two games it is difficult to go far. But, right now, it is the only reality that
Spain
can grasp
at this
European Championship
, where it walks from intrigue to intrigue. The national team woke up with a hangover, the hangover from another home game, in La Cartuja, where things did not go well either. What's more, they came out, due to sensations, even worse than against Sweden. Still, if Sweden's Berg had hit an empty net and Swiderski's whip had missed the post, the boat could find itself in an even more dramatic situation.
But the reality is that
Spain
has two points and, despite its poor aim, with one goal and a handful of frustrations after 28 shots (only Turkey and Scotland, who have not yet scored, travel with less luggage), they still have one last bullet.
Wednesday's (6:00 pm) against Slovakia, a team with better numbers than Luis Enrique's, thanks to his victory on the first day against Poland.
It is difficult to be left out of this
European Championship
, where 16 of the 24 participating teams go to the round of 16.
Where only two of the six third parties will have to go home.
But in those is Spain.
These are the accounts of the Spanish team:
Win over Slovakia
It is the direct way to be one of the 16 teams in the
round of 16
.
The national team would stand with five points and, if Poland beat Sweden, it could even do so as the first in the group.
That would mean facing one of the four third parties.
Right now, Austria, Switzerland, Croatia and Finland occupy one of those places in which
Spain
is also found
.
He would do it in Glasgow and, if he passed the round, he would play the quarters in Rome.
In the event of a tie between Swedes and Poles, it would be the overall goalaverage that would decide the position.
If Sweden wins, Spain would finish second and their journey would continue in Copenhagen with the second in group D: England, Croatia, Czech Republic and Scotland.
The tie
He would have to cross his fingers and entrust himself to a miracle, since Spain could only continue as one of the best third parties.
And that would only happen if in the rest of the groups there are less than two teams that do not improve those three points that they would have with that supposed tie.
Right now it is Portugal (who plays with France on the last day), Finland and Austria who would accompany the national team.
And they are Croatia (Scotland is measured on Tuesday) and Switzerland (closes today -18.00 hours- against Turkey), with a single point, the only ones that worsen the record of
Luis Enrique
.
Spain's
third tied
at La Cartuja would be useless if Poland defeats Sweden.
It would come last and sign one of the most disappointing participations (if not the most) in its history.
The defeat
There would be a very remote option that would happen, in the first place, because
Poland
does not beat Sweden in the same group.
And it would also depend on Switzerland drawing with Turkey this afternoon (18.00) and Croatia not beating Scotland on Tuesday.
The current two points would give him the ticket, but it would be a nothing short of miraculous situation.
