I'm happy for my players, for my country and for myself. Spain has always qualified for the last 30 years, so there's not a lot to celebrate. But I'm content, we've done the job.

This game is the most important for me as the coach of Spain. In fact probably ever,

Ivory Coast is a good team and has an advantage because it's just played the African Cup final. Although Spain hasn't played for a while, I hope the players can put on a good display.

I have to confess I am worried. We played well up to 65 minutes and then there was that extraordinary blow which threw us off-balance.

I am not worried about facing Belgium. I get worried about things like the speed of bullets if I had to go to war.

However, he has at the level of resistance that we need.
