Spain alters training plans due to storms in New Jersey
The Spanish national team was unable to conduct their scheduled outdoor training session on Saturday at the Melanie Lane Training Ground in New Jersey because of storms. Following safety protocols, Luis de la Fuente's squad opted for an indoor activation session, just one day before facing Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final. Spain enters this match on an unbeaten streak of five consecutive victories, including their most recent 2-1 win against Belgium on July 10.
What happened with Spain's training session?
The outdoor training was canceled due to adverse weather conditions. The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) confirmed that the players conducted an indoor activation session at the facility. This change of plans did not affect the team's physical preparation, which remains in top form after their five-game winning streak.
How is Spain preparing for the final?
Despite the change in plans, the RFEF assured that the team is ready for the big final. Additionally, Spanish fans will have several meeting points and activities organized by the Federation to enjoy the pre-match hours in a festive atmosphere. 'Casa España' will be the main gathering point at the Mercado Little Spain, near the Vessel building and the 34 St-Hudson Yards subway station.
What's next for Spain?
After the World Cup final, Spain has scheduled their next match against England on September 26. Luis de la Fuente's team will aim to maintain their unbeaten streak and continue their winning ways on the road to Euro 2028.
