Spanish players’ dispute with Jorge Vilda in stark contrast to the unity of England under Sarina Wiegman
The notion about Spain is that they have done it despite their manager, not because of him, although the bitter irony is that their success at this World Cup will only have strengthened the position of a man who is deeply unpopular with the bulk of his players.
Wiegman’s CV is phenomenal. This is the fourth successive major tournament where she has led a team to the final, her own Netherlands at Euro 2017, which they won, and to the 2019 World Cup final, which they lost to the United States. Then there was England’s Euro 2022 success, and now this, with just one defeat in her 36 games.Sarina Wiegman, manager of England, celebrates victory with Ella Toone.
But you can see the impact that a manager can have, look at what Wiegman did with the Netherlands, look at what she’s doing with England now. And then there’s Vilda who, until now, underachieved with the quality of players he’s had. As for the outcome of the game, I’m nailed to the fence. Spain could win or could get trashed. We’ve seen them produce magic moments in this tournament, we’ve seen them get hammered by Japan. It could all fall apart for them again, or their individual brilliance and technical ability could see them shine.
