Spain vs Costa Rica: Test of bravery

In the 2022 World Cup finals, Spain is in Group E with Japan, Costa Rica and Germany. According to the assessment, this is an uncomfortable group and coach Luis Enrique's teachers and students will have to be extremely careful if they want to win tickets to continue.

Back to the opening match, the famous team of the country of bulls had a match against Costa Rica and according to most experts, 3 points belonged to Spain, which is not an unexpected result. However, with a young squad and more severe weather in Qatar, La Roja will have to work very hard to get all 3 points.

Notably, Costa Rica is not an easy opponent to bully at the moment. Accordingly, the representative of the Concacaf region has just won 10, drawn 2 and lost only 1 time in the last 13 matches in all competitions.

Back to the 2014 and 2018 World Cups, Costa Rica performed impressively when winning 3, drawing 3 and losing 2 times after 8 games played (counted in the official 90 minutes). In particular, Costa Rica once made a strong impression when winning points from the hands of European giants such as Italy, England, the Netherlands or Greece.
