Soccer Football - FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 - Spain Press Conference - Main Media Center, Doha, Qatar, on Dec 5, 2022AL RAYYAN, Qatar - Spain coach Luis Enrique is convinced his players can overcome Morocco in the World Cup last 16 on Tuesday and deal with the pressure of a penalty shootout if they need to.
"Over a year ago, in many national camps we told players, 'You have homework ahead of the World Cup. You must take at least 1,000 penalties with the club'. You can't just train them when they're with the national team'," Luis Enrique told reporters on Monday. Luis Enrique gave his team a B+ for their group stage performances, highlighting the 15 minutes against Japan when they were "steam-rolled".
"I'm very satisfied with what I've seen in training, I'm convinced we have a great chance to achieve a good result and advance."In the last four World Cups, Spain have only got past the last 16 once -- when they were crowned champions in 2010.
