La Furia Roja can’t stop winning. Since closing their European World Cup campaign with an emphatic 5-2 victory away to Bosnia-Herzegovina, the Spanish have played three matches – all of these being friendly encounters. First, they beat Diego Maradona’s Argentina 2-1 before trouncing Austrial 5-1. They followed their winning run with a 2-0 defeat of Raymond Domenech’s French team on March 3.
Analytically, Saudi Arabia have no chance of causing an upset on Saturday. Spain’s unstoppable form gives the impression that they will exhibit their attacking talent and dominating force throughout the 90 minutes against Saudi Arabia.
Even if Coach Vicente Del Bosque is facing problems over the issue of injuries, the Spanish national team possesses an array of talent. Any other player can step up to the challenge. Young players like Pedro and new inclusion Victor Valdes could make the most of their appearance this weekend should they be given some playing time. Spain will face South Korea next and then Poland on June 7 as they resume their preparations for the 2010 World Cup.
