Pablo Torre<\/a> did not have a good afternoon with Spain against Romania (2-1). ‘La Rojita’ started the match losing very early after the goal of the striker Louis Munteanu in the 4th minute<\/strong>, but finally managed to take the victory in the complement. With the three points, those of Santi Denia ensure their pass to the quarterfinals in the U-21 European Championship.<\/p>\n

The Romanians surprised the Selecci\u00f3n with a dressing room goal from their ‘9’, who took advantage of a long pass to control with great skill between the Iberian central defenders. After the initial blow, Spain took about a quarter of an hour to react<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

With Torre again as a midfielder, the team struggled to find depth<\/strong>. However, a grab on T\u00e1rrega after a corner allowed ‘La Rojita’ to have a penalty in favor in the 24th minute. Mateo Joseph took charge of the shot, but threw the ball out for wanting to adjust his shot too much.<\/p>\n

Pablo Torre could not shine in his second match in the European Championship<\/p>\n

Pablo’s best contribution in the first half came just before the break, with a good cross from the right that Marc Pubill could not finish comfortably. The Cantabrian completed 17 of 19 passes in the first 45 minutes (89%)<\/strong>, but only won 1 individual duel in 5 attempts.<\/p>\n

In addition, he made a shot on goal controlled without problems by the goalkeeper Razvan Sava. The one from Soto de la Marina, in the debut against Slovakia, had been 60 minutes on the field.<\/p>\n

\"Troubled<\/a><\/p>\n

On Saturday, however, he would not go out for the complement. At halftime, Santi Denia opted for Roberto Fern\u00e1ndez instead of the Bar\u00e7a midfielder<\/a><\/strong>, while Ra\u00fal Moro entered for Marc Pubill.<\/p>\n

Two totally offensive changes to populate the rival area with forwards. Spain took control of the match, although Romania was close to 0-2 in a couple of opportunities. However, as the minutes passed, goalkeeper Sava became a figure.<\/p>\n

Spain’s comeback and doubts about the role of Pablo Torre<\/p>\n

With Romania against the ropes, Blanuta saw the direct red in the 83′ for a mistimed iron to dispute a divided ball. Just after, Mikel Jaureguizar equalized the score<\/strong> with a powerful shot from outside the area.<\/p>\n

Four minutes later, in the 88′, Roberto Fern\u00e1ndez scored the winning goal<\/strong> with an accurate header after a cross from Ra\u00fal Moro. The changes were effective for ‘La Rojita’, who next Tuesday will seek to stay with the leadership of group A against an Italy that also secured its qualification on Saturday against Slovakia (0-1).<\/p>\n

For Pablo Torre, the match against the ‘azzurra’ will be a new opportunity to regain confidence and justify his ownership in the team. With the number ’10’ and as a midfielder, the Cantabrian has been imprecise in decision-making<\/strong>, probably conditioned by the pressure of making a good tournament to find a team this summer.<\/p>\n
