Spain will be entering this year's World Cup with the poor show of the last World Cup in mind. Spain had a disastrous World Cup as the defending champions were knocked out in the group stage itself in 2014.

This year though things are totally different. Spain has corrected a number of its past mistakes and is looking like the team to beat in the competition. It has the best Goalkeeper in the World in De Gea.

With the likes of Ramos, Pique, and Alba it has a defence which any team would envy. One area which the team lacked last year was the lack of goalscorers and to nullify that weakness it has Iago Aspas this time who is a unique kind of a forward. He has scored 22 goals and had five assists for Celta Vigo in La Liga and it would be interesting to see if he can deliver for Spain at the front.

The biggest drawback with Spain is the removal of its coach at the eleventh hour which could prove to be a costly mistake for the side. The team has performed well under him and adapting to the new coach in a World Cup might just be too much to ask for from the talented team.
