在球隊1比0戰勝沙特以後，西班牙主教練阿拉貢內斯表示：“世界盃這才真正的開始。”西班牙的險勝意味著他們可以慶祝自己三戰全勝晉級的成績。而小組第一的快樂卻在法國隊成功出線以後變得少了很多。塞斯克法佈雷家斯在得知他們下場對手之前説：“我們想避開的是法國隊，因為他們的技術特徵和他們的球路。”主教練阿拉貢內斯也回應了他的隊員的看法。

　　原文:World-Spain look to early form for France showdown

　　By Simon Baskett

　　KAISERSLAUTERN, June 24 (Reuters) - "This is when the World Cup really begins," Spain coach Luis Aragones remarked after his side's 1-0 victory over Saudi Arabia on Friday.

　　Spain's narrow victory meant they could celebrate finishing top of their group with a maximum nine points for only the third time in 12 editions of the tournament.

　　But the shine was taken off their achievement by the disappointing nature of their display and the fact that later in the day they learned they would face former world champions France in the last 16.

　　"The side we want to avoid is France for their characteristics and the way they play," Cesc Fabregas had said before his team's opponents had been decided.

　　Aragones had echoed the midfielder's feelings a few days earlier.

　　"France may not be playing well at the moment, but they have the experience of the big occasions that makes them very dangerous."

　　Spain deservedly took the plaudits for their sparkling 4-0 destruction of Ukraine and their determined 3-1 comeback win over Tunisia, but Friday's game was a different story.

　　With a place in the last 16 already assured, Aragones took the opportunity to rest his first-choice side and field the second stringers against the Sons of the Desert.
