Russian coach Valery Gazzaev spoke about the departure of the Spanish national team from world Cup-2022.

I think the Spanish national team is responsible for the defeat of the Moroccan team. It seems that the most important thing in the Spanish game is ball control. They controlled play throughout the game, but created virtually nothing on Morocco’s doorstep. When it was possible to attack sharply, they began to open up the defense due to a positional attack. But this was also because the Moroccan national team played in a very organized way: they were more acute in using counter-attacks. Now this is football.

The Spanish national team was originally one of the favorites of the tournament – a young and promising team. Control for its own sake is useless. We need to attack more aggressively. As a result, the Spaniards stepped on the same rake as four years ago in Russia.
