How does Spain get to the World Cup?

After the failure in Russia 2018, Spain entered a period of renewal. This process was not difficult to bear, after all, ‘La Roja’ already had young footballers participating in elite football. With this new litter, they participated in Euro 2020, where the synergy between possession and verticality managed to take them to the semifinals. A year later they would reach the final of the League of Nations, but they would be defeated by France.

Since then, Spain has become a team that does not find itself, faded and self-absorbed, once again appealing to the possession game, but without the depth and verticality that characterized them in recent years. However, for now, it seems to be enough, as they managed to qualify for the semifinals of a new edition of the UEFA Nations League.
