SPANISH FOOTBALL NATIONAL TEAM POSSESSION PLAY

This is just some extra information,  yet interesting,  to help further understand the Spanish build up to yesterdays first goal by DAVID SILVA against Scotland in the Euro Group I qualifier. Spanish Sports daily "AS" has whipped up this infograph to perfectly highlight the Spanish Football ( National Team ) philosophy of "touch-ball or possession play". 


The stats are the following: 42 touches & all 11 Spanish players touching the ball ( including goalkeeper) before Silva converted the build-up in the first goal. Said another way , 1 minute & 34 seconds forcing the Scottish players to run without the ball until Spain scored.

Eye lifting stuff that some Coaches may wish to show their players.
