#3 Anger

FBL-WC-2018-ESP-TRAINING
Repressed anger

This might be repressed as of now but the truth is that the players are ought to be angry at the way things were handled by Rubiales. Despite the fact that Sergio Ramos and Andres Iniesta asked him to not sack Lopetegui, Rubiales went on and did it and it won’t be surprising if this incurred the wrath of the players.

You see, anger is a complex emotion. It has the capacity to burn the one holding it or, if channelled properly, burn the people meant to be burned. Since the Spain team is filled with players who are not only great at what they do but also mentally very strong, it won’t be surprising if they zone this anger in the proper way.

And this anger could help them lift the World Cup for the second time in their history.
