This is a team that if you saw them play against France, if you score, they don't sit back like England.

They keep playing the way that they play, which is to keep the ball and make you run even more.

That's the greatest compliment you can give the Spanish team is that

They never felt in danger at all during that game.

When we talk about style of play and tactics, Spain don't have that.

What they have is a cultural identity.

They've played this in the same formation from five years old up until 65 years old.

You play that with your friends, everybody knows every position.

There's a connection, there's triangles across the field all over.

I love just watching them play.

It's harmonious.

Players moving forward, the other guy drops underneath.

And it's a connective type of tissue approach.

Versus on the other side, you have an Argentine team that plays with emotion, intensity.

Quality, obviously, with guys like Lionel Messi, Martinez, and Julian Alvarez.

But I think Spain will get their toughest test they've had all tournament long.

Because what France tried to do was said, hey, you know what?

We're going to high-press against this Spanish team.

And then they couldn't.

Argentina can do that.
