As a Spaniard, I have been looking forward to this game for a long time and I have to talk about it.

Spain have been overlooked this time, few fans and media think they are favourites to win the tournament, except for the Spanish people, we still have a lot of confidence in Spain, although coach Enrique rarely recruits Real Madrid players, but I still think they are one of the favourites.

Pedrie is a Barca player, but I have to say he has a lot of ability and this World Cup is his chance to perform. Enrique will probably use Barca players, they work better together. Enrique has been under a lot of pressure recently and the team need a big win to boost their morale.

Costa Rica is no underdog. The team was a dark horse at the 2014 World Cup, winning the Group of Death against Uruguay, England and Italy with two wins and a draw before losing to the Netherlands on penalties in the quarterfinals. In 2018, they were again in a tough group, and although the group failed to qualify, they still played well.

This time Costa Rica are again in the Group of death, which is a coincidence, this team is always in the Group of death, this time they are tough, the remaining three teams are all coming with ambition.

Spain need to play well in their opening group game. They expect a big win and they have the ability to do it.

作为西班牙人，我对这场比赛期待已久，不得不说一下。

西班牙这次被忽视了，很少有球迷和媒体认为他们是夺冠热门，除了西班牙人，我们对西班牙还是很有信心的，虽然主帅恩里克很少招揽皇马球员，但我还是觉得他们是最爱之一。

佩德里是一名巴萨球员，但我不得不说他有很多能力，本届世界杯是他表现的机会。恩里克可能会使用巴萨球员，他们一起工作得更好。恩里克最近压力很大，球队需要一场大胜来鼓舞士气。

哥斯达黎加不是弱者。球队在2014年世界杯上是一匹黑马，在死亡之组对阵乌拉圭、英格兰和意大利的比赛中以两胜一平的成绩获胜，然后在四分之一决赛中点球负于荷兰。 2018年，他们再次分到了艰难的小组赛，虽然小组赛没能出线，但他们依然发挥出色。

这次哥斯达黎加又在死亡之组，很巧合，这支球队一直在死亡之组，这一次他们强悍，剩下的三支球队都是带着野心来的。

西班牙需要在首场小组赛中发挥出色。他们期待一场巨大的胜利，他们有能力做到这一点。
