Spain coach Enrique hails 2-goal Alcacer: He was superb

Spain coach Luis Enrique was delighted with the performance of Paco Alcacer in victory against Wales last night.

The Barcelona striker, on-loan with Borussia Dortmund, scored twice in the first-half of the 4-1 triumph.

Enrique said, "To highlight a single player seems sad to me and I think it's to be proud of the team.

"Paco Alcácer has been superb, but I liked everything in the work of the team, the attitude on the pitch has been very good today.

"The confidence is basic for any player but more for the strikers, I am happy for the three (Suso, Alvaro Morata and Alcácer), although logically Paco calls more attention for the goals."
