With uncertainty until the end but without surprise, Luis Enrique has managed to qualify the Spanish team for the Qatar World Cup directly, being first in the group and without going through the repechage. The objective is fulfilled and for that part no reproach can be placed on the coach or the players, but the way to achieve it leaves many gaps.
The coach has been faithful to his ideas and once again showed that he does not marry any player and that he takes those who are better at that moment. Thanks to this, we have seen a parade of players throughout the qualifying phase with great news such as Gavi, the consecration of Laporte in the center of the rear, the goals of Morata or the return of a Madridista to the national team after the European Championship.
All the good that Spain has shown has been thanks to the coach who is not influenced by rumors that come from abroad and is always attentive to the moment so that all his players go through, those called up and those who may go in the future. And although Luis Enrique already has a block of players in each list, he has left his personal stamp with news such as Bryan Gil or Yeremi Pino, players who were pushing hard from below and to whom Luis Enrique has opened the doors of the absolute thinking of the present but also in the future.
And if all the good we have seen from Spain is thanks to the coach, he also has to take responsibility on the negative side. In a group that was not one of the most complicated, La Roja lost more points than expected against inferior rivals, won games by the minimum and suffered and the game has been soporific at times. The coach has always remained true to his style and his game scheme, although that has meant that the team suffered more than necessary in games that it should clearly dominate both in the game and in the result.
Luis Enrique has achieved his first objective, to qualify for the national team, now he touches the next level and it is to make this team dominate the scoreboard just as it does with the ball and dominate the opposing area against the rivals that are locked behind him, because already We have seen that before the great ones they do measure up.
But in a World Cup you have to face big and small. Luis Enrique still has work to do to improve the image of his team, and just as he has managed to create a united group, now he will have to make that part of the fans that is still reluctant with this team to get on the boat and get excited with the national team.
