The team are all set and ready to face the five-time world champions this Tuesday at the Santiago Bernabéu (21:30, Spanish peninsular time, live on La1) in a duel that will see an impressive six World Cup titles on the Santiago Bernabéu pitch.
The official training session at the Ciudad del Fútbol on Monday morning allowed Luis de la Fuente to make any final adjustments ahead of the match against the Verdeamarelos, the first game Spain will play in front of their home fans this year.
In the morning session, international Rodrigo Hernández, who is in perfect physical condition, was absent for personal reasons.
This Tuesday's match will be the tenth historic clash between the Spanish and Brazilian national teams, with two wins for the national team, two draws and five victories for the South Americans.
