Psychologist Marta Ros is one of the approximately 1,400 Spaniards residing in New Zealand. This Tuesday afternoon, she brought her children Martín, Tomás, and Inés to the meeting with the Spanish Women's Team during the moments prior to their training at Mc Lennan Park stadium in Papakura.

The words of encouragement offered by this family, who have been living on the other side of the world for seven years, preceded a new and intense work session for the internationals, who have been concentrated near the city of Auckland since last week.

Ball exercises have taken the spotlight after the gym, in a training session where the players have fully exerted themselves, eager to fine-tune their preparation exactly ten days before the World Cup debut.

Vietnam, also qualified, will serve as the opponent for the team in a final training match this Friday, before they travel on Saturday to the town of Palmerston North to set up their base camp there during the group stage of the World Cup.
