(On if David De Gea will play after being accused of being involved in a sex scandal)

"If we see that David De Gea is able to play then he'll play. If he's not then it won't be a problem, somebody else will take his place."

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Vicente del Bosque, Spain coach

"We're in good condition despite the national call-up is stagger - we've had players arriving at different times due to European final or chamionship league final being late but we're ready to start the competition tomorrow. "

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Sergio Ramos, Spain defender

(on Spain's performance in the Brazil World Cup)

"I think football is like that. You can't always win. We've had great moments and tougher moments as well throughout the history of our national team. When you win many things, people maybe start getting used to you winning many things, us included, so then we don't realise that sometimes that doesn't happen. We want fans to support us with the same intensity they've had for all these years and they should have confidence in us. Anything can happen. But regardless of what happens, everyone will go home with their heads held high, knowing that they did everything they could."
