Spain 6- Germany 0 | The steamroller was Spain

Mr Ceferin, I don't know if it would be good to bring the Euro forward to tomorrow. Luis Enrique has no problem and don't worry about television rights, it is broadcast for free. So far, desire and science fiction; from here, the summary of the Spain-Germany played in La Cartuja: La Roja recital, a win and qualification with all the laws for the Final Four of the Nations League. With the icing on the cake of the greatest Spanish victory against Germany in all history. In short, renewed enthusiasm in the fan.

I'm not exaggerating, because in Seville we have enjoyed the best version of the Spanish National Team since Luis Enrique (I'm talking about his two stages) came to office. And it is that La Roja did not take a blink to make it clear that he was going for the match head-on, being faithful to his DNA of touch and risk. After four minutes, the Spanish players requested a penalty for a foul on Olmo. As there is no VAR, who takes vacations in the Nations League (he has enough work for the rest of the year), the referee, the Swede Ekberg, brought the infraction to the edge of the area. We do not know if there was a lack or not, if it was inside (it seems that it was) or outside. The truth is that it was Ramos who launched that free-kick, a low shot to the post's strain, but Neuer cleared well. From crack to crack.

Germany waited behind with a line of four in defense. Much caution before the Spanish attack trio, in which Olmo was on the left, Ferran on the right and Morata in the center, exercising that species almost in extinction that is the center forward. The feelings were good, but Spain suffered an early setback (minute 9). In an a priori action without transcendence, Canales controlled and cleared a ball badly in the front of the area and immediately put his hand to the back of his thigh. The diagnosis, which we all make even without a white coat and sitting on the sofa at home: muscle injury. The one from Betis left his place in the field to Fabián, who was called to do great work in his land.

But the other way around we went almost without realizing the joy, which came in the form of a goal. It did justice to those first minutes of the National Team, which since Rodri moved wisely and, above all, quickly. Fabian threw a corner and Morata headed at the far post with Neuer helplessly assisting the shot. A goal that came just a year after the last one he had signed with La Roja. It was the 17th minute. Six later, Juve's team scored again, but saw how the goal was canceled (it is his fate this season) for offside. It was not, the images show that the ball in Ferran's pass was ahead. Spain accelerated and the occasions followed one another. On 29 ', Neuer miraculously saved a low shot from Ferran. On 32 ', a header to the crossbar by Olmo was riveted with full force and placed by Ferran at the back of the net. Golazo. And in 38 ', the same trending topic, that of Rodri's foreshortening in a header against which Neuer could do nothing. It was 3-0. It was the rubric to a first part of ten, worthy of framing, the best start of the Luis Enrique Selection. Only the injuries to Canales and Ramos, who had to be replaced (by Éric García) due to muscular discomfort in minute 43, made us twist after 45 minutes of madness.

Germany had to react after the break. Until then, only his hymn had aroused us concern. And it is enough to listen to its first bars so that one knows that things are serious. It has been sounded so many times, so many games, the little touches of Torres and the heads of Maceda and Puyol come to mind, making our legs shake that we don't even play. But Germany was only an anthem. She never felt comfortable on the lawn at La Cartuja. He repeated some of the ailments of the lifting that Joachim Löw intends to carry out halfway between the World Cup in Russia (in which it was last in the group in the initial phase behind Sweden, Mexico and South Korea) and that of Qatar. The Mannschaft he arrived in Seville chaining 18 games without losing, with 11 wins and seven draws as a breakdown; He also did so by scoring in his last twenty games. But he left Seville in the middle of the blush.

After the break, the Mannschaft suffered the same ills. Kroos had to go down too much for balls and was pressured to exhaustion by Fabian and company. Werner did not fall any ball and, meanwhile, Rodri and Koke formed the perfect tandem in Spain, with Morata galloping off and with the central pair, that divine youth treasure of Pau Torres and Éric García, solving all the commitments.

In those, a new blow to the German chin came, Ferran's goal in 55 'after an extraordinary counterattack in which Gayà gave the final pass to the City winger, which had his best game since he made his debut with La Roja. But before leaving, seeing out of the corner of his eye that Luis Enrique was preparing changes, he signed a great goal after a new one against the National Team. He received the pass from Fabian and released a right hand so tight to the post that it made Neuer cry, who could not celebrate in a worse way the record of caps (96) that snatched the mythical Sepp Maier. Ferran went to the bench a minute later with Olmo and Morata, his partners in an attack that was a real gale. It only remained to wait until the end of the game between the shock of the whiplash from Gnabry's crossbar, the goal of the recently entered Oyarzabal and the delirium of the Spanish bench, who did not stop cheering his teammates on the pitch. Logical. It's not every day that you play / enjoy games like this.
