Olympic Games De la Fuente: “What happened in Ceballos has been miraculous”

What do you expect from the game against Argentina?

The goal is still to win the match. We want to guarantee the classification and do it in the best possible way. Morale is very important, we know that we have a very difficult opponent to play against. We have to think about our own thing, about doing it in the best possible way.

The main aspect to improve is the aim?

We want to keep improving, the goal is always to grow. The team has been improving these days in physical, in play, in group cohesion. We are very satisfied with his dedication and convinced that this match is going to be better than the past. It is the experience that we have always had in these competitions.

Argentina also plays it, they need to win. Is that better for Spain so that they do not lock themselves back?

A game is going to be watched from you to you, we both have the need to win and that changes the approach of the game. I do not know if it will benefit us or not, but we have a very clear idea, we try to reflect it in each game. Needing victory, Argentina must assume another role, risk more and we will try to take advantage of the spaces that can be generated.

In which game is Ceballos going to return?

Dani's thing has been miraculous. I want to recognize the physiotherapist and the doctor. In other circumstances it would have been a much longer injury. If we are fortunate enough to be in fourth place, it will be there, there … What is clear is that we are not going to risk until we are sure that it is okay. We are very happy.

Is Mingueza for 90 minutes?

We knew that Oscar was a matter of days. But you have to be careful, we will wait to see the evolution after training. We will be prudent.

Will the tree move again?

I am not hiding anything if I say yes. They are demanding games, with little recovery, we need fresh people and there is nothing better than having players who have had the chance to rest. Sure there are going to be players who are going to contribute that. I insist again and again: we have such good players that it doesn't matter who comes out.

Do they go back to going from less to more like the Absolute did in the Eurocup?

It is a logical and natural process, when you are competing and you meet the rivals, you get into the competition. Even more so when we are in preseason. If this is prolonged, surely the evolution will be for the better, beneficial. It is natural and we were calm, we knew what would happen.

They will arrive with rhythm at their clubs …

They are very young people, they have a tremendous capacity for recovery. We are dosing all the footballers for the benefit of the team and because it is good for them for the future.

How were the Merino and Asensio substitutions taken?

Sensational. It is a group of friends, of colleagues. They were the ones that encouraged the most during the game, I only have words of thanks for their professionalism, for what they add up to. All united are much stronger, you have to think in unity.
