The Coach Ensures Kepa Is Not The Main Goalkeeper Of The Spanish National Team

Robert Moreno, coach of the Spanish national team, insisted that Kepa Arrizabalaga was not the main goalkeeper of his team. That is what happened, although Moreno gave Kepa more confidence to take a position under the crossbar of La Furia Roja - the nickname of the Spanish national team.
In the last four matches of the Spanish national team, Moreno prefers to play against Kepa than David de Gea. De Gea's decline in performance against Manchester United will be the main reason for this decision.

Kepa himself has proven his ability to protect the Spanish national team's goal. When Romania met on the sixth day of Group F qualifying for the 2020 European Cup, they made a brilliant rescue for Spain to win 2-1.

Although considered to give Kepa more confidence, Moreno was hesitant to call the player as the main goalkeeper of the Spanish national team. For him, the position does not belong to anyone now because of the capacity of the guards who are still uneven.
"I did not have an initial goalkeeper, could or could not change, I kept the same message, all three (including Pau Lopez) were at the highest level and they had forced me to make difficult decisions," Moreno said, quoted by Goal on Sunday ( 8/9/2019).

"All three have trained at a very high level, I would not say that I have a choice goalkeeper or not," the 41-year-old goalkeeper said.
