Spain 2-2 Morocco: 3 things that went wrong for Spain, World Cup 2018

#1 Too many shots, too few goals

Spain would've liked to and should've scored more than they did

18 shots, 5 on target, 2 goals.

Considering the vast attacking options that this Spain side possesses, those numbers just aren't good enough. Yes, they're creating plenty of chances. Yes, they're doing plenty right. But at the end of the day, it's the goal tally that truly matters.

Against Morocco, one would've expected Spain to bury a lot more chances than they actually ended up converting and that isn't a very good indication.

Diego Costa is no doubt a necessary piece to the puzzle. He's an excellent fulcrum to hinge the side on, but he isn't as prolific as Spain and their supporters would like.

This is where the side misses someone in the mould of a Harry Kane or Romelu Lukaku - someone who is almost guaranteed to bring the goals with him.

Last night Costa was on the field for 74 whole minutes, but only managed 2 shots, neither of which troubled Morocco's goalkeeper Munir. Further, the fact that Gerard Pique took the most shots (3) on the team will be of concern.

Isco, Thiago and Iniesta also took 2 shots each, with only Isco managing to successfully convert one.

While the other top-dogs like England and Belgium have already found themselves smack dab in the middle of goals, Spain will have to rediscover their shooting boots before it's too late.
