The coach, with a "bitter taste" and happy to "hook a lot of people", is already thinking about Spain giving the "pitch" in the World Cup

MADRID, 21 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The women's national coach, Jorge Vilda, confessed that he still has to "digest" the elimination of Euro 2022 at the hands of England in the quarterfinals since they were "seven minutes from glory", but he was satisfied with the level and commitment of its players, already thinking about the 2023 World Cup.

"Not at the moment, it will take a few days to digest it, to analyze it, to see what happened. The taste is still bitter, but heads up because I think we are all very proud of our players," the coach told his arrival in Madrid this Thursday, less than 24 hours after the elimination.

Vilda described the dismissal as "cruel", which came in extra time after the English made it 1-1 in the 84th minute, but pointed to the strength of her players. "Well, quite whole, yesterday with a lot of anger because you stayed out of the semifinals the way it was, a little cruel, but they are professionals, they are thinking of resting and starting the preseason," she explained.

The national coach was in fact asked about that 1-1, which came in an action highly demanded by the Spanish, an elbow on Irene Paredes that was not whistled nor did it attract the attention of the VAR. "Yes, it is true that from the bench it is not easy to see it, a play near the goal, and in the replay, it can bother Irene to jump", he confessed.

"Yesterday the team was quite good, they faced the game very well, we controlled and we were seven minutes from glory. At the moment you also have yesterday's defeat but you do have the feeling that no one was better than us, about to beat England, with their people, with everything in their favour. Even the game that they lost against Germany I think we were superior, nobody has made them defend in that way. Spain has achieved it and it is one more step to beat these teams ", he claimed.

Vilda recognized that the team comes out stronger and with the desire to "hit the ball" in next year's World Cup. "Of course, that's the best thing. We have two official games left, we are already qualified for the World Cup and thinking about next summer in the World Cup in New Zealand and Australia with great enthusiasm and with the desire to hit the pitch", he valued about the next big date.

"I really want the wind to come a bit in favor of the draw in some tournament, the COVID, the injuries, everything we've had. With all the stones that have been on the road, we have been able to solve them with an acceptable grade and For the future I hope to have all the players we have and to have a bit of wind in our favor", she confessed.

In addition, the coach highlighted the increased following of the national team and women's football from Spain. "It is also one of the best news. The audience figures have been spectacular, many more people have been hooked. Many more people are going to follow our team, our soccer players and there is no one to stop this," he stressed. .

"I have to reconsider, but I'm left with the effort, the work of all the staff, the players, the Federation, and also with the monitoring that everyone has done and that we have reached the homes of all Spaniards" , term.
