Spain defeats Kosovo, Enrique still complains

By db-admin

DBasia.news – The coach of the Spanish national team, Luis Enrique, continues to complain even though his team won the sixth matchday of Group B Qualifying for the 2022 World Cup in the European zone, Thursday (09/09) am, WIB.

Spain opened the scoring through Pablo Fornals’ goal in the 32nd minute. After that, La Furia Roja had difficulty dismantling the host’s defense.

Finally, after tireless efforts, Ferran Torres listed his name on the scoreboard entering the 88th minute. Spain came home with three points.

“It’s like giving birth with complications. Games like this are always challenging. September is not the best month to compete. This is a month where you haven’t competed,” said Enrique as reported by Football Espana.

“It cost us from the start, but we took the three points in the end. The team is leveled, something we saw after the results of Greece and Sweden.”

The victory was also a positive signal for Spain to ensure themselves qualify for the 2022 World Cup. Currently, Spain is at the top of the rankings with 13 points from six matches.

Meanwhile, the second position belongs to Sweden with nine points from four matches.

“Securing a place in the 2022 World Cup is up to us. We still have two games to qualify for the World Cup.”

“One game will be against Sweden and we have seen how tight it will be at Euro 2020. Just because it depends on us, it doesn’t mean we will achieve it. It is challenging to win two, three or four games in a row,” said the coach.

One of the interesting events that filled the match was when the Spanish television referred to Kosovo as the Kosovo FA. This is because Spain refuses to recognize Kosovo’s independence due to its own independence movement as happened in Basque and Catalunya.
