Notes from Kamen

Spain had its second training session in Kamen, Germany today.

The crowd in Kamen today consisted of school children having a picnic and a small group of Polish fans. So far, there have been no reports of the school children throwing flares at the Polish fans so we assume they watched the training session in peace.

Raul hurt a toe, but it doesn’t appear to be anything serious.

There’s a lot of uncertainty about what Spain’s starting line-up will be. And for that reason, players are still vying for starting spots. It’s up to Luis: will he go for strength or will he go for skill in his starting 11?
