Luis de la Fuente talks about the injuries of Álex Baena and Zubimendi
The Spanish national team coach has appeared before the media after beating Denmark 2-1.
Except for the final moments, Spain put on a display. Are you proud that everything works out no matter who plays?
We are happy because we have a fantastic youth system, with four reliable players for each position. That gives us peace of mind and brings us joy. The team responds in any situation and in moments of maximum demand, as it was in the match against Denmark. We won through sheer determination. The team keeps winning and does not lose its ambition.
What happened at the end?
Those who came on gave their all, although maybe we lacked some finesse at times to maintain control of the game. I want to highlight that we played against a team that put pressure on us, with a supportive stadium and man-to-man marking. But we played a good game and could have sealed the win with a 0-3 lead, but in the end, we suffered.
Baena is injured, as well as Zubimendi. And Oyarzabal is suspended. Will they stay or leave?

Baena has a knock on the ankle and Zubimendi on the pubis, we will monitor their progress, but we will not risk them. Oyarzabal is suspended and cannot play against Switzerland in Tenerife. Regarding the first two, we will decide after checking on their physical condition, and with Oyarzabal, we will talk and let him decide what is best. If he wants to return to his home and club, I am fine with that.
Will there be controversy between Raya and Unai when the latter recovers?
There is and will not be any controversy. In this team, there is no place for that, because we are a well-connected family.
