The coach and the goalkeeper of La Roja will emerge from Oslo for Sunday’s fixture.

A plan must be crafted to keep Erling Haaland from turning the match in Norway’s favor, and a backup plan will be ready among the three options if the first fails. Luis de la Fuente and Unai Simón, Spain’s head coach and starting goalkeeper, will take the stage this Saturday at a press conference ahead of La Roja’s clash with Norway on Sunday, a qualifier for Euro 2024 in Germany.

Who will halt Haaland in Norway? The Spanish national team faces a testing assignment with De la Fuente leading the way. Haaland stands as the principal obstacle Spain must overcome next Sunday to secure a ticket to the European Championship in Germany. He is not alone in creating pressure, as the Nordic side features other renowned talents, including former Real Madrid midfielder Martin Odegaard and Villarreal forward Alexander Sorloth. Haaland embodies the central challenge for a Norway side determined to push toward continental qualification at the Ullevaal Stadium in Oslo, in front of nearly 30,000 supporters who will rally behind their team and make life difficult for La Roja.

De la Fuente and Unai Simón will address the Manchester City striker and a range of other topics from 6:15 pm in Oslo, where Spain aims to secure a victory that would seal their presence at next year’s European Championship.
