"He's old, Hierro, look at his grey hair."
"We do need to control and pass the ball, which Lin can do. Let David Silva partner with Busquets, and add Lin, so the midfield control is better."
When faced with the most crucial starting lineup selection, Xavi and Hierro had a disagreement.
Hierro still wanted Iniesta to start, but Xavi thought not.
"Inesta's ball intelligence and control are still very strong, but we should choose a targeted lineup based on Morocco's characteristics."
"I think it would be more appropriate to put Iniesta on the bench for this game."
Raul also chose to support Xavi's opinion. Hierro looked at David Villa, who nodded at him.
Hierro's eyes suddenly became firm. He pulled out the tactical board and then wrote out the final starting 11.
The four-member coaching team stared at the final eleven-man roster. The unknown was written in everyone's eyes, but in the unknown, there was also expectation.
The final crucial battle!
A life-and-death battle that Spain cannot lose!
Media and fans from all over the world, especially Spanish fans, were all attracted by this game.
Everyone is paying attention to this life-and-death battle and whether Spain can successfully break out of the group.
Spanish social platforms are filled with discussions about this life-and-death battle.
"Why does this process feel familiar? Opening battle, life and death battle, honor battle, train station, four stations in one, invincible!"
"Morocco is really hard to play against. They are too physically strong and have a strong North African feel."
"I think after the World Cup, many players of this Morocco team will be bought by big clubs, such as Ashraf, Ziyech and so on."
"The cruelty of the World Cup has already begun to show in the group stage. The German team is facing elimination. Can you believe it? They may not be able to break through the group."
On July 7, during the FIFA World Cup's last special analysis show for the group stage, the six commentary teams had not expected that the group stage of this World Cup would be so chaotic.
“The qualification of many teams in the group stage is currently in doubt.”
"There have been many upsets in this World Cup. After losing 0-1 to Mexico, Germany relied on Toni Kroos's difficult last-minute goal to beat their opponent in the second round of the group stage, retaining their last hope of advancing, but they may also be eliminated directly."
"Poland lost both games and was eliminated early. The last round is just a battle of honor for them."
"After being tied 1-1 by Iceland, Argentina also faces a tough test to qualify. They must win the last round of group matches, just like Portugal and Spain did."
"This World Cup seems to be full of magic, with upsets happening frequently."
"The third round of the group stage will determine whether many of the world's top teams can successfully break through. German Tank, Five Shields, Matadors, Pampas Eagles, African Cheetahs, etc., all of these teams have the strength to advance to the World Cup knockout stage."
"But judging from the current situation, some of them will definitely be eliminated."
"Many life-and-death battles are about to begin!"
July 2nd was a sunny day.
The light of hope shines upon the earth.
Two teams that had hopes of successfully advancing from Group B got off the bus and walked into the Yekaterinburg Stadium.
Lin Chen was wearing a pair of red headphones. There was no music in them, but they had extremely powerful noise-canceling functions. Lin Chen just wanted to keep himself absolutely focused and absolutely quiet.
At the entrance to the Yekaterinburg Stadium, there were two teams of security personnel and ten riot police officers holding riot shields.
Throughout the stadium, there were five riot police lined up vertically in every four rows, wearing explosion-proof helmets, holding explosion-proof shields and explosion-proof batons, ready for action.
