The Spanish National Soccer Team: Returning to Normalcy
The Spanish national soccer team is currently enjoying a period of success. After the controversies surrounding Luis Rubiales, the team has managed to regain normalcy with impressive performances. They recently won the UEFA Nations League and the women’s team triumphed in the 2023 World Cup held in Australia and New Zealand. The team’s strong performance in the October and November matches, including a 1-3 victory against Cyprus, has practically secured their spot in the Euro 2024. However, amidst this prosperous period, there are ongoing debates that have started to bother coach Luis de la Fuente.
Debates Surrounding Sergio Ramos and Isco Alarcon
One recurring topic of discussion is the potential return of Sergio Ramos to the national team. Despite his outstanding performances for Sevilla FC, the coach is tired of being asked about Ramos and whether he will ever make a comeback. Another point of contention is the omission of Isco Alarcon from the team, despite his excellent form for Real Betis.
A Change of Heart for Luis de la Fuente
In a surprising turn of events, Luis de la Fuente included Isco Alarcon in the latest pre-list for Spain’s matches against Cyprus and Georgia. This decision indicates that the coach has rectified his previous stance on the player. However, the same cannot be said for Sergio Ramos, as the coach has closed the door on his return since their controversial fallout.
