Spain repairs team relations
Posted Friday, September 02, 2011 by Supersport.com
World champion Spain is looking to bounce back from a defeat to Italy and repair relations inside the team when it plays Chile in an international friendly in Switzerland on Friday.
Spain's recent record in friendly matches hasn't impressed as it comes off a 2-1 defeat to Italy that dropped it from Fifa's No 1 ranking for the first time since its Word Cup win in South Africa last year.
And the recent run of ill-tempered club matches between Barcelona and Real Madrid have taken their toll, with 14 players in the 24-man squad coming from those two teams.
Madrid defender Sergio Ramos says, "here there will never be problems."
Spain is using the match at St. Gallen to prepare for Tuesday's Euro 2012 qualifier against Liechtenstein.
