Italy has a good record, Luis Enrique is not afraid

DBasia.news – The Spanish national team will challenge Italy in the 2021 UEFA Nations League semifinals. La Furia Roja coach, Luis Enrique welcomes this match with great enthusiasm.

The Spain vs Italy duel will take place at the San Siro, Thursday (7/10) at 01.45 am WIB. Gli Azzurri did act as the sole host for the semifinal and final matches.

This condition certainly makes Italy more profitable. The reputation of being a European Cup 2020 champion also adds to the confidence of Roberto Mancini’s team.

But Enrique does not feel daunted by this condition. He believes Spain still has a chance to beat Italy and win the title.

“This is a competition we want to win. Surprisingly we will be playing against the reigning European champions in their country,” Enrique told UEFA’s official website.

“It will be a very interesting game, to see what kind of performance we can produce in front of a majority Italian crowd and against the European Cup winners.”

Enrique certainly hasn’t forgotten that Italy stopped Spain in the semifinals of the 2020 European Cup. At that time, the Matador team were eliminated through a penalty shootout.

These results in fact did not make Enrique and his troops be traumatized to Italy. On the other hand, the failure becomes additional motivation to win in the match later.

“You don’t need more motivation than that. I can’t wait for the game.”

Enrique deserves to be confident. Italy’s performance after winning the 2020 European Cup has not been stable.

Enrique has observed this condition. It is possible that he has found the right tactics to take revenge on Italy.

“Without a doubt, Italy’s style of football is one of the best. I’m sure it will be very interesting to see how each team reciprocates.”
