Xinhua News Agency, Madrid, December 12 (Xie Yuzhi) Louis de la Fuente officially appeared as the new coach of the Spanish national team on the 12th. At the press conference on that day, he said confidently: a new era has begun.
After the “Matador Legion” lost to Morocco in the 1/8th final of Qatar World Cup, on December 8th, the Western Football Association announced that Enrick “finished class”, fuente, who originally coached the U21 national team, took over as the coach of the Western national team. On the 12th, Fuente said that he “had a preliminary idea” about the construction of the team “. At the same time, he affirmed that the door of the Spanish national team was “not closed to any players”.
As a coach, fuant’s resume may not be gorgeous. Before, no matter in the club or the national team, what he taught was a youth team.

Fuente responded with “domineering” to the external doubts about his coaching ability. He said: “If anyone can understand the present and future of Spanish football, that person is me.”
Ten years ago, the Spanish team once stood alone by the way of communication and control. However, the defeat of Qatar this time made the football style they had been adhering to have been criticized. Fuente said that the team will continue to stick to the road of spreading and controlling football, but at the same time it will make corresponding adjustments to this system. He said: “Football is always developing and changing. We need to constantly improve and be open to everything.”
Unlike Enric, a former high-profile live broadcast during the World Cup in Qatar, the 61-year-old Fuente is more “traditional”. He said he was not interested in social media: “I don’t have social media accounts and don’t use them. People need to know everything about me from the media, and I will also convey the information I want to convey through the media.”
Fuente will welcome his first show as the coach of the national team in the Spanish vs. Norway qualifier of the European Championship in next March. However, in fact, as early as last June, he briefly took the position of head coach of the national team. At that time, the Western national team was unable to play the friendly match against Lithuania under the influence of the new Crown epidemic prevention policy. Fuente was temporarily appointed to lead the Western youth team to play in the name of the adult team and beat the opponent by 4:0.
