World Cup 2023 | Follow Switzerland – Spain live: Tasting at the goal
MADRID, 5 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Spanish women’s soccer team faces Switzerland this Saturday (7:00 am/La 1) in their round of 16 match in the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, a match without a net and in which they seek to make history with their first World Cup qualification for the quarterfinals and win an eliminatory duel for the first time.
Spain arrives at this appointment after adding their first defeat in the tournament last Monday, when they were thrashed after a bad game against Japan, but still with a certain favoritism over a rival who still does not know what it is to concede a goal and who also wants to getting into the top eight in the world for the first time.
Jorge Vilda’s team will have to park all those doubts that it offered defensively and show its best version in the offensive phase at the Eden Park Stadium in Auckland to continue extending the dream of going far in this tournament against a Switzerland that will possibly raise a match very similar to that of the Japanese.
Welcome to the live narration of Switzerland-Spain.
EXPECTED FULL AT EDEN PARK
As indicated by the Spanish team, FIFA has reported that all tickets have been sold to watch the match at Eden Park, Auckland. The capacity of the stadium is around 45,000 spectators
SPAIN WILL PLAY WITH ITS SECOND EQUIPMENT

SPAIN BEFORE THE CURSE OF THE CROSSING

Thalmann; Aigbogun, Maritz, Stierli, Riesen; Horse, Walt, Reuter; Bachmann, Crnogorcevic and PiubelInka Grings bets on its most used eleven. He comes out with an apparent 4-3-3, although it will be necessary to see how he stands on the field
VILDA RENEWS ITS ELEVEN
Regarding the Japan game, apart from Misa, Olga Carmona, Rocío Gálvez, Alexia Putellas and Mariona Caldentey are not playing. We will see how this ‘revolution’ turns out for the coach, who is betting again on a ‘9’ and more offensive tinge with the entry of Alba Redondo
THERE ARE ALREADY ONCES AND THERE IS A SURPRISE AND ‘REVOLUTION’
