MADRID, 3 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Spanish international Aitana Bonmatí has not participated in the national team's training this Sunday morning due to “being unwell”, the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has reported.
The Barça player, recently awarded the Ballon d'Or, had to be substituted after half-time of the match on the penultimate day of the Nations League between Spain and Italy at the Pasarón Stadium (2-3).
In fact, the team took ten players to the Pontevedra field after the break, according to coach Montse Tomé, because Aitana had “given short notice that she could not continue”; The Italians tied (1-1) taking advantage of their superiority in a duel that they ended up winning. Despite everything, Spain qualified for the 'Final Four' of the Nations League.
On Saturday, Aitana explained that she “didn't” feel “well” and that was why she asked “to be replaced,” specifying about that controversy with the coach that “the situation has nothing more to it.” In addition, she invited us to focus on the last match of the phase, this Tuesday against Sweden in La Rosaleda.
