The thinness of

Luis Enrique is

no longer news, no matter how much he is a stick when he appears even with the tracksuit and the feathers of the Federation on. Moreno, has given him the sun in the two training sessions in Las Rozas, has been energetic, as always, in the ramshackle of the (inside) run-down Olympic Stadium in Athens, surrounded by cats and with dogs that come to look for them there, until the press room. The national coach, questioned more than half a dozen times about the "pressure" involved in playing the World Cup, has chosen to joke with her.

"No! Don't tell me you're going to ask me about the pressure!", He joked before the fourth or fifth question. "Yes, I said the other day that I did feel the pressure, but after seeing the two training sessions the truth is that I am more than optimistic. Confidence, the pace at which they train, makes me feel more confident and calmer to prepare this game ", said the Asturian, who admits:" Spain is obliged to win every game. There is always pressure, there is not a single game in which I have been a coach and we have not had to win ", no matter how much we win at

Greece

, this time, is essential to go to

Qatar

.

So much has the pressure pitcher gone to the source of Luis Enrique that, in his last answer, it has come up: "I see you a little worried about the pressure. What's wrong? Blessed pressure, what a marvel of pressure! "The problem is for those who play this and have no pressure. Luis Enrique was born with pressure. Since I made my debut at

Sporting

at 19,

I have been holding the pressure, I feel comfortable, the pace is going, the rhythm is going", and In an 'in crescendo' without limits, continue:

"You have to be optimistic! Positive thoughts generate positive energy, and that generates good feelings and dynamics ... I am very happy!

I am very optimistic! And I think we are going to play a great game and we're going to win. There will be time to think about ugly and bad things, "he concluded.

CARVAJAL, LIKE A CHILD

"I'm like a child with new shoes, it's like my first call," said Carvajal, who came out to speak to the media immediately after Luis Enrique.

The Real Madrid full-back, who has barely been an international for 25 games at the age of 30, and most of the absences have been due to injury, spoke about the coach: "

The first time I came I was already soaked in how he watches football, how he lives it, and I think he is a great coach

and has built a very strong group. "

Precisely that, the group, is what the Madrilenian has made the most emphasis on.

"

You can see that they are a very strong group

, where everyone supports, those who play and those who do not. It is true that especially in my club I have had to live games like these, with this pressure of having to win, but not I will give advice to no one. The key is in the strength of the group and that is how it has to be, "he closed.
