Spain
Spain is on fire and definitely one of the teams expected to contend for the World Cup title. The past few years have been good to the team as they have won the 2008 Euro and made it to the semifinals in the 2009 Confederation Cup. Winning all ten of their South Africa World Cup qualify matches, Spain was the second top scorer in the Euro Zone and conceded only 5 goals.All football previews from different sources consider Spain as a serious contender for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.
Spain is a powerful team with a lot of strength. They are well known for their possession play and for their attacking. From front to back, this team is stacked and ready to attack any team that stands in its way.
The Spaniards are not unbeatable as the USA team found out in the 2009 Confederation Cup semifinals. They are big scorers and they like to take the lead early on. Keeping Spain from an early lead is essential to beating them. Spain also does not play well against physical teams. They tend to struggle with fouls and corner kicks.
There are many stars on the Spain’s team. The two main players to watch for are David Villa and Fernando Torres. These two players are finishers and the combination of the two is very deadly. Their captain, Iker Casillas, is currently one of the world’s best keepers in the sport.
While being the favored team in the first stage, the game to watch is against Chile. Chile is known for being attackers and is also a big scoring team very much like Spain. This should be a good game to watch if you like attacking and goals.
