The player explained what the key to Spain dominating matches is, explaining that their style is what has allowed them to be superior in previous matches: "We focus on our game and what we want to do to beat our opponents. We study and plan a game plan that we believe will benefit us, but we play our game, which is what has made us superior and has got us this far".
