The National Team overwhelmingly dominates the statistics in the Eurocup to the point that Pedri is the player with the most kilometers traveled in the tournament. The physical display of the La Roja players contrasts with the lack of punch that Spain has shown in some meetings.
Thus, the players of the National Team have scored 12 goals in five games divided as follows: the first match against Sweden was a 0-0 draw, the second against Poland was 1, with a goal of Morata; In the third and fourth the bottle was uncorked and five goals were scored in each game, Dubravka and Kucka in own goal, Laporte, Sarabia and Ferran scored against Slovakia, the latter two repeated against Croatia to which they were added Azpilicueta in the regulatory 90 minutes and Morata and Oyarzabal in the extension; While in the fifth, the quarterfinals, the seams in attack of Luis Enrique's men were seen again, who needed penalties to eliminate Switzerland after drawing one with an own goal from Zakaria after a shot from Jordi Alba in the only goal scored in the match after 27 shots. It is also worrying that Spain conceded a goal in the only two shots on goal they received.
The good figures of Spain in the face of the attack are improved by Italy. La Azzurra has made 101 shots for the 95 of La Roja and all this with one hour less of play after not having played two extra time. What's more, Spain is the one that has the most possession per game (62%), the one that shoots the most at the opponent's goal (39), the one that exhibits the most precision in the pass (89.4%), the one that tries the most crosses (140), the one that provokes the most direct free hits (96), the one that recovers the most balls from an asphyxiating pressure when it is well executed (218 ), the one that kicks the most corners (41), the one that raffles the ball the least with only 49 clearances.
Pedri, the roadrunner
The Barcelona midfielder has proven to be one of the tournament's players with his physical display at 18 years old. Statistics show that he is the player who has traveled the most kilometers in the tournament. He has traveled 61.5 kilometers in the Eurocup, an average of 12.3 per game. Add eight kilometers more than Laporte, the only outfield player to complete every minute, nine more than Koke, ten what Jordi Alba.
The canary has become indisputable for Luis Enrique in the eleven of the National Team. His races and physical endurance beyond 90 minutes cause all eyes to focus on Tegueste's. La Roja's '26' is pure resistance on the pitch.
