The strong wall of La Roja prevents Ronaldo’s teammates from realizing their dream
Spain quietly continued to make history with an unprecedented defensive record at the World Cup, proving that its strength is not limited to possession, creating chances and scoring goals, but instead extends to exceptional strength in front of goal.
Spain reached 600 consecutive minutes without conceding a goal at a World Cup finals against Portugal in the round of 16 on Monday night, the longest clean sheet in the tournament’s history, according to Mr. Chip Stats.
With this number, the Spanish team is the world record holder, surpassing the Swiss team, which kept a clean sheet for 557 minutes, and the Italian team, which reached 550 minutes.
The last time La Roja conceded a goal in the World Cup was a 2-1 loss to Japan in Qatar on December 1, 2022.
Spain beat Portugal tonight, and Lamine Yamal’s teammates advanced to the quarterfinals, where they face the winner of Tuesday morning’s America-Belgium match.
