After a sloppy first half against Sweden, Spain showed signs of life against the USA and a more physical style against Sweden. The US's inept finishing was evident, but JenniHermoso's flawless shot tied the score in the ninth minute. In the second half, physicality was more even with Spain failing several penalties and yellow cards. Megan Rapinoe used the opportunity to flag Spain for a soft foul in the 76th minute. The US's physical fitness showed in the last 15 minutes.
La Roja's performance in the USA
La Roja's performance versus the United States was eye-opening. The U.S. WNT was unbeaten in eight competitive matches and had never conceded a goal. They outscored their opponents 44-0. Despite the United States' impressive goal-scoring record, the Spaniards have grown stronger. They're a dangerous side, capable of applying pressure to the inexperienced U.S. back line and goalkeeper. Their last two goals, both of which were scored by Megan Rapinoe, have been frustrating for La Roja.
They were formed against South Africa
Spain started their match against South Africa as a 4-3-3 team. With their wide attackers taking up half-spaces and making space for their fullbacks, Spain used a 4-3-3 structure. South Africa was unable to counterattack because the midfield was very compact. Except for a few excellent efforts by Amanda Mthandi, Kgatlana and Kgatlana, the goals were scored by the Spanish attacking midfielders.
Their away kit in South Africa
In 2017, the Springboks wore a red jersey in a match against Argentina. They also wore one in blue against Ireland in September 2017, wearing a replica of their first ever rugby jersey against the Irish. Asics created the red away jersey as a promotional product. It featured the Springboks and Blitzboks wearing all the colours of South Africa's flag. They also wore greens, blacks, and whites in the Sevens Series.
They did a great job against Sweden
Sweden beat Germany by 2-1 in quarter-finals at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. Sweden was awarded a spot in the final. They will now face France or Germany at Wembley. The Swedish team used athleticism to overcome Germany's backline. In the 48th minute, they won with a goal that was just two minutes after the break. Sweden won 1984's European Championships with penalties. It hopes to repeat that feat at Wembley.
Their knockout round match with Germany
The Spaniards are in great form since Alexia Putellas was injured in their previous game. Germany has been a force in this tournament, winning their last game. The hosts are still in excellent form and will be hoping to qualify for the knockout round. Germany has unfortunately lost Marie-Antoinette Catoto to injury, and France has struggled to find their feet in this tournament.
