Spain are clear. They must beat China to guarantee a place in the last 16, despite the fact that could mean facing USA.
In a press conference, the Spanish coach, Jorge Vilda, commented: "The team are focussed on how to bit China. We want to be in the last 16 and we want to do so beating China. We will not a waste a minute thinking about what could happen, but we are thinking about what could happen against China."
"We know that they will try and bend the rules and we have to take it into account when we play." We have got a different game plan," added the Spain coach.
"It is an important match to take a step forward and continue to make history. It can get you a place in the last 16 and that is what we are focussed on. We are at the point that we want to top the group and therefore we will look to win the match. The team are getting better. The game plans are understood perfectly. We have the World Cup tempo and we want to go through by playing at breakneck speed.
