Spain's national team, led by defender Olga Carmona, is preparing for their match against Belgium without discussing being favorites for the European Championship. After a dominant 5-0 victory over Portugal, they aim to secure a quarterfinal spot by maintaining focus on upcoming challenges. Carmona emphasizes the team's commitment to winning while acknowledging the unpredictability of football. They have improved their game significantly since earlier struggles, with an effective pressing strategy after losing the ball now being a fundamental aspect of their play.
Internally we don't mention that word [favourites]. We just want to keep picking up wins. Football is unpredictable and we want to take things step by step. We wanted to start with a win and we did that.
We can't get carried away with the Portugal win, every team is going to make it difficult. We have another challenge tomorrow and we want to overcome it.
We have improved there. You can see how much more effective we are. That pressure after losing the ball is part of our DNA.
