Spain manager's staunch defence of Morata

Luis Enrique issued a staunch defence of Alvaro Morata after Spain's 0-0 draw with Sweden.

La Roja dominated their tournament opener but failed to find a breakthrough as they were forced to settle for a point in Seville.

On-loan Juventus man Morata was guilty of missing two glorious opportunities for the three-time European champions at La Cartuja Stadium.

But Enrique praised Morata for his performance in the stalemate and stated that his team "completely controlled" the game.

"I think Alvaro had a great game," he said.

"Of course we all want to take our chances, but other players had chances too.

"I think he's used to it, but of course we want to see that support from the fans. That's football though, it would have been nice to dedicate a win to the fans because they were fantastic for most of the game today.

"We were by far the better team. The opposition tried to hang back, we completely controlled the game and tried to create as many chances as possible."

Opta revealed Spain completed 419 passes in the first half against Sweden, the highest figure in the opening 45 minutes of a European Championship game since they started collecting such data in 1980.

Spain face Poland on Saturday before rounding off the group stages against Slovakia four days later.
