Unai Simón heads to Tokyo

Mini-vacations are over for Unai
Simon. The rojiblanco goal ended his successful journey at the European Championship on July 6, when the Spanish team fell in the semifinals against Italy, which finally became champion after defeating England in the final penalty shoot-out at Wembley.

The one from Murgia has subsequently enjoyed a few days off, but today he has already headed to Japan to play the Olympic Games with the Spanish team led by a former lion, Lewis
from
the
Fountain.

The expedition was scheduled to fly yesterday Monday, but a last minute mechanical problem on the plane prevented it. After making a stopover in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, Spain is scheduled to land at Kansai airport, built on an artificial island, at 2:00 am CET (10:00 local time) on Wednesday morning.

Spain leaves behind a 13-day stay in Benidorm (Alicante) marked by physical load and acclimatization to the conditions of the Japanese country. The six members who played the Eurocup with the absolute team have not been in this concentration: the Athletic goalkeeper, Eric
Garcia, Pau
towers, Dani
Elm, Pedri Y Mikel
Oyarzabal.

Spain will debut on July 22 against Egypt in the opening match of men's football at the Games, with only one preparation match against Japan, which will be played on July 17.
