The Spanish national team held their final training session at Cotton Bowl Stadium ahead of their World Cup Round of 16 clash against Portugal. The big news from the session was Nico Williams' return to full training with the main squad.
The Athletic Bilbao winger trained alongside his teammates, meaning head coach Luis de la Fuente will have all 26 of his players available for the match against the Portuguese. This marks the first time since the start of the World Cup that the La Rioja native will have his entire squad at his disposal.
Despite his return, Nico Williams is not yet fit enough to start, but all indications are that he will be included in the matchday squad. Victor Muñoz and Yeremy Pino, the other two players who had been dealing with physical issues, are also set to be available.
The training session took place amidst an intense heatwave gripping Dallas and much of Texas. The practice also generated significant media interest on the eve of the showdown between two of the tournament's major title contenders.
