Here you have the Spain squad photo, taken in Las Rozas this morning. The lucky 23 men that are going to be representing 'La Roja' in the 2010 World Cup next month will be training in Madrid until May 28th when they travel to Innsbruck in Austria for a friendly against Saudi Arabia the next day (18.00 CET). They then move onto Schruns (Austria) where they will play against South Korea on 3rd June, after which the squad will fly back to Spain to prepare for the final warm-up match against Poland on 8th June (22.00 CET) in Murcia. Three friendly matches to negotiate before their flight out to South Africa on 10th June. Anyone think thats one too many? Or are they against such easy opposition that it just don't matter?! I have no doubts the matches will prove useful run-outs, but the squad have got enough injury worries to contend with as it is. And thats a fair amount of traveling for two weeks. Del Bosque and the whole country will be keeping those fingers crossed they all get to the NWU Campus (Potchefstroom) in one piece.
