July 18 : Former Spain manager Vicente del Bosque has warned the national team not to underestimate Argentina ahead of the World Cup final, describing their opponents as a “real nuisance” and urging Spain to remain cautious.
• Del Bosque led Spain to World Cup victory in 2010, when they beat the Netherlands 1-0 in South Africa.
• “Argentina are a tough team to play against—a real nuisance, if I may use the word—and they know exactly what they need to do,” del Bosque told the El Pais newspaper in an interview published on Saturday.
• Del Bosque pointed to Argentina’s comeback victory over England as evidence of their quality.

• “I see the final as favouring Spain, but they need to be wary of the Argentines, given how difficult they are to face and their experience,” he said.
• The 75-year-old also praised Spain’s performances at the tournament and backed them to lift the trophy.
• “In the matches we have watched, the game was played exactly on the national team’s terms; they dominated the situation and demonstrated both assurance and confidence,” he added.
• The World Cup final between Spain and Argentina will be played at the New York New Jersey Stadium on Sunday.
