Statement by Steve Clarke (Scotland coach)
The coach commented that for them it is a "great challenge. Spain is a great team. In March it was a good moment for us, not so much for them. They have grown and won the Nations League".
He also explained the idea to try to beat 'La Roja': "Our mentality will not be to defend. We have to keep the way we played in Glasgow, that aggressiveness. We must play our game, being aware of the potential of the Spanish national team".
Statements by Luis de la Fuente (Spain coach)
The Spanish coach, Luis de la Fuente, appeared at the press conference prior to the match against Scotland in which he analyzed what he expects from the game: "The players are all available. There is some discomfort and we will wait and see how it evolves. We expect a very tough match, they are a very strong opponent whom we respect a lot. They are going to demand the best version of us.
On how the Spanish team is coming along, he pointed out that "the team has improved in all facets of the game. We have many more options for the wingers. The midfielders are the best in the world and we defend well. Above all, we have improved as a team. Now I watch more soccer and play more sport".
