Spain’s head coach shared thoughtful insights following a hard-fought victory over Italy in the UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 group stage. Acknowledging Italy as one of the toughest teams in the group, he praised the resilience and tactical maturity of his players, emphasizing how the squad managed to take control after going a goal down.
The coach noted that when Spain decides to play with intent and structure, the entire tone of the match shifts — a pattern seen previously against Belgium and now again versus Italy. He highlighted how Spain’s tactical depth and collective understanding allowed them to stay composed and impose their style of play, even after rotating five new players into the squad.
He also addressed the goalkeeper decision, explaining why Adriana started ahead of Kata despite Kata being fit. With seven days until the next match, Spain plans to balance rest and preparation as they shift focus to facing Switzerland in the knockout stage.
