Luis de la Fuente, the Spanish coach, gives Unai Simón the starting position in the goal in the Nations League semifinal against Italy and bets on the experience with Jesús Navas and Jordi Alba in a defense in which Robin Le Normand makes his international debut .
It also has Aymeric Laporte and Rodri Hernández from the beginning despite completing only one training session with the group.
Of Luis de la Fuente’s first eleven, only Laporte, Rodri, Mikel Merino, Gavi and Morata remain as starters; and of which only the double pivot made up of Rodri and Mikel Merino, and Yeremy Pino, fell defeated in Scotland.
Against Italy there is relief in the goal with the return to the selection of Unai Simón, who missed the first two games of the new coach due to physical problems. It also debuts forward with the presence of Rodrigo Moreno along with Yeremy and Morata to look for the goals that give the pass to the final against Croatia.
Spain starts the semifinal with Unai Simón; Jesus Navas, Le Normand, Laporte, Jordi Alba; Rodrigo, Mikel Merino, Gavi; Rodrigo Moreno, Yeremy and Morata.
