More on Carvajal
As Pulse Sports reported, Real Madrid star Dani Carvajal analysed Spain's victory over Norway, specifically how they kept the world's deadliest striker, Erling Haaland, quiet.
The right-back explained that they tried to set up with a compact shape so as to prevent their hosts from playing through them, and as the result shows, the match went as planned.
"We came here to win; we played a complete game," Carvajal said.
"They hardly gave us any chances and we are going home happy and with our ticket to the Euro.
"Defensively, from Unai [Simon] to Alvaro [Morata], we have been very compact; we have not allowed him to receive any comfortable ball. Praise the work of the centre-backs because they have done a fantastic job."
