Del Bosque gearing for 100 percent record as battle for qualification from Group I heats up
Spain booked their ticked to 2012 European Championships finals in the previous international break. La Roja have the option of taking their next two group matches easily as the result will not reflect upon their progress.
However, manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Del Bosque has stated in no certain way that he wants to maintain their 100 percent record. Their next two games can seal the fate of Scotland and Czech Republic.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 are comfortably placed at the top of their group. The reigning champions have a perfect record, six out of six wins and have two more fixtures to go. Qualification from the group is open and results against Spain will determine who gets the ticket
to the event hosted by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032.
Coach Del Bosque is well aware of the importance of the upcoming fixtures in the group and this makes them difficult to ignore as well. The matches will be far from easy and this will be a good place to start gearing up for the upcoming footballing extravaganza.
The world champions will be travelling to Czech Republic on October 7, while they will host Scotland in Estadio Jose http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rico-c31132 Perez three days later. La Roja’s opponents are battling out against each other for qualification. A win for the Czechs will rule Scotland’s
chances of advancing while a draw or defeat will allow them to continue dreaming.
Former Real Madrid manager has said that he will give little thought about his adversaries and is looking to continue in their impressive fashion. Del Bosque stated that he wants his players to go out and claim all the points on offer. The ruthlessness of
the squad should not give way to slackness on the pitch.
The experienced Coach said: “I want to win games no matter what the situation is or what we have done. You must be professional and I think the other nations in the group will expect that”.
“You could lie down but we want to keep winning before the finals and the players will be looking to make sure they play in the finals. We might be through but we want to finish the group with a flourish,” he added.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Scotland-c756 are third in the group standings. The Scots are ruing the missed chances in their crucial 2-2 draw against the Czechs in the last round of fixtures. Had
that match ended in their favour, they would have leap forged to a comfortable second behind the Spaniards.
However, now everything is on stake in Prague. Michal Bilek’s men will be looking to use their home advantage to full use in the encounter to take home all the points and ensure playoffs contention. A win for them against the world champions will be enough
to kill the Scots chances to get anything.
With La Roja playing at their best, Bilek’s charges do not stand a chance. This will open up the group as Craig Levein’s side should be able to win in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liechtenstein-c2943. There will be an electric environment in Alicante on Tuesday night. Expect a battling Scotland
team to show up at Estadio Jose Rico Perez. It will be a noisy crowd as more than 7 thousand Scottish fans will be in the stadium after they were allowed more seats to meet the demand.
