0:0 - in Front of Fernando Hierro

 

Draw against Spain – it is a great result for U-17 team of Koba Zhorzhikashvili. Georgian boys lost the first match against the hosts 1:2 in Las Rozas. This time, they played 0:0.

The weather was fine at La-Rosa stadium and the match was worth watching. By the way, Fernando Hierro, technical director of Spanish Football Federation and legendary football player of “Real” Madrid and the Spanish national team, attended the match along with Luis Milla, head coach of Spanish U-21 team and former midfielder of “Real” and “Valencia”.

According to the website of Spanish Football Federation, the hosts had advantage but Georgians played much better than they did 2 days ago. They had some moments – for example, midfielder Guram Samushia kicked the ball in the second half and goalkeeper David Gomez parried it.

Joel and Vadillo were distinguished from Spanish team. Georgian goalkeeper parried the ball of Vadillo. Gerard Deulofeu could have scored twice.

Spain and Georgia are preparing for European Championship elite-round. On March 25-30, the team of Zhorzhikashvili will hold group matches in France where Belarus and Norway will be their opponents along with the host team. Of course, two matches against Spanish team will be a great experience for Georgians.
