Since being appointed coach of the Spanish national team after the 2018 World Cup with a short break he took from the role following the death of his daughter, Luis Enrique has been trying to find a way to return La Rucha to the top of world football.

The change of generations that has been forced on him and the attempt to put young players in rotation mean that the 2010 world champion does not look as expected of her.

Tonight (21:45) it will host the German team for a head-to-head battle for promotion to the Final Four of the League of Nations in the main game in the fourth tier of the factory.

Spain refer to the game as the perfect preparation for determining the potential squad for Euro 2020 when Rodry, the Manchester City midfielder defined the game as 'life or death' and stated that he hopes Germany will make the Spanish players reach the limit of their capacity.

"We expect Germany to be as strong as ever, it can be a good test for us in the situation we are in, when it comes to a game of life or death for us," said Rodry, "they will push us to the limit as has happened in the past. Our mentality does not change even Once upon a time, we always wanted to win, "he added.

Sergio Busquets revolutionized the back-to-back position at La Rucha when he took Spain's 11th place about a decade ago while training under Pep Guardiola at Barcelona and now Rodry is trying to take his place and prove his place in the national team is justified.

"It's a position that requires a lot, especially in one-on-one struggles. I think it forces me to be focused at every moment in the game."

On the ability and minority of the conquerors he said: "I do not know if the number of goals is so important, what is important is to win. I do not see many teams scoring a lot of goals. There are no clear unilateral results, we feel calm about it."
