Santander, June 2 (DPA) Veteran Spain football manager Luis Aragones is working round the clock to eliminate his side’s defensive mistakes ahead of his team’s Euro campaign. Aragones, 69, was furious with the sloppy goal that Spain conceded in Saturday’s 2-1 win over Peru.
In the 73rd minute in the Huelva friendly, with Spain 1-0 up but starting to relax, a rather aimless Peruvian ball over the top created confusion between defender Carlos Marchena and keeper Iker Casillas.
Marchena tried to clear the ball but only managed to slice it towards Peruvian sub Hernan Rengifo - who calmly accepted the gift, heading the ball deftly over Casillas.
Rengifo’s goal ended Spain’s record run of 586 minutes without conceding a goal - and drove Aragones wild.
