In a recent press conference, Tom\u00e9 spoke confidently about her team&#8217;s readiness and strategy, emphasizing their objective of maintaining possession of the ball during the game. She believes the team is in a positive mindset, reflecting on their growth and maturity as athletes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">&#8220;It is the tournament where we are feeling the most at ease, both they and the coaching staff; where I have been able to see in recent years\u2026 The team is \u00a0mature\u00a0 and wanting to compete. Obviously, we will compete to win,&#8221; Tom\u00e9 noted. This sentiment reflects the level of \u00a0confidence\u00a0 that the coaching staff has instilled in the players, as well as the players&#8217; growing understanding of the game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Tom\u00e9 highlighted the progression of the team regarding their knowledge of the game, maturity during matches, and their capacity to prepare mentally. &#8220;There is a progression in every way: in knowledge of the game, in maturity in the games, in understanding of the game, how to prepare for the game, to be focused two or three hours during the day on this and then know how to disconnect,&#8221; she explained.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">The coach also pointed out the incredible talent within her squad, stating, &#8220;We have always had an incredible talent of all the players and we have created a team that is capable of assuming the role that is essential for success.&#8221; Tom\u00e9 further emphasized the importance of \u00a0mutual trust\u00a0 between the players and the staff, highlighting that this is crucial for the team\u2019s success.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Looking back at past encounters, Tom\u00e9 remains hopeful that the team can overcome their historical record against Germany, particularly after their heartbreaking defeat in the match for bronze during the previous Euro Championship in \u00a0Paris 2024\u00a0. &#8220;In these seven years that I have been in the team, I have competed against Germany five times and we have not managed to overcome it\u2026 We have been closer to win,&#8221; she admitted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">As the match approaches, Tom\u00e9 reaffirms the team&#8217;s commitment to staying true to their playing style. &#8220;We are going to try to have our essence, and our essence is to have the ball,\u201d she clarified. However, she acknowledged that strategies must adapt based on the unique defensive styles of their opponents. &#8220;What can vary is how to have it, because in front we will have a team that defends differently,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">A significant focus during the press conference was also on the team&#8217;s goalkeeper, \u00a0Ann-Katrin Berger\u00a0. Tom\u00e9 praised Berger for her performance and experience, stating that her veteran presence has added value to the team. &#8220;He is a great goalkeeper, he has demonstrated it in this championship and in his career\u2026 The goalkeeper is the position that has most evolved in women&#8217;s football in recent years,&#8221; she pointed out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">In addition to discussing their strategies, Tom\u00e9 also confirmed that the team has trained for \u00a0penalty situations\u00a0. While there are multiple players capable of taking penalty shots, Tom\u00e9 emphasized the importance of instinct and feelings on match day. &#8220;We have a list of pitchers for penalties, but the sensations send,&#8221; she remarked, indicating that the players will have input on whether they feel ready for the challenge when it arises.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">The conversation turned to potential penalty takers, with Tom\u00e9 mentioning goalkeeper \u00a0Cata Coll\u00a0 as a wildcard option. &#8220;Cata points to a bombing if you leave it. She is a personality player, wanting to be,&#8221; Tom\u00e9 said, hinting at her confidence in the team\u2019s depth and versatility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Tom\u00e9 also took a moment to express her admiration for star player \u00a0Alexia Putellas\u00a0, stating that she is in top form. &#8220;What Alexia can say is all good\u2026 she has turned around difficult situations,&#8221; Tom\u00e9 concluded.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">As Spain readies itself to face Germany, the challenges ahead are monumental, yet there exists a fervent hope for success rooted in preparation, trust, and skill. The groundwork laid by Tom\u00e9 and her coaching staff, along with the talent of the players, provides a solid foundation for what they hope will be a historic match in the Eurocup.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/category\/general\/\" rel=\"dofollow\">General News &#8211; 2<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The excitement is palpable as the \u00a0Spanish women&#8217;s soccer team\u00a0, under the guidance of head coach Montse Tom\u00e9, prepares for a crucial match against \u00a0Germany\u00a0 in the Eurocup.
