Spain held by Switzerland in 2018 FIFA World Cup warm-up


Spain goalkeeper David de Gea made a rare error which led to his side drawing 1-1 at home to Switzerland in a World Cup warm-up friendly on Sunday which the hosts dominated but failed to make their superior possession count.

“We did many things well although we didn’t take the chances we have, but the fact we played with intensity and continuity against a team as strong as Switzerland is the most important thing,” Spain coach Julen Lopetegui told reporters.

“I’m sure in other games we’ll be able to make the most of half the amount of chances we had. I’m pleased that we were able to create lots of chances and they barely created opportunities against us.”
