Tuchel says England are ready to test Spain’s 43-match unbeaten run

England play Spain in Madrid on Sunday in a Nations League match that could help decide who tops their group.

Spain are unbeaten in 43 matches, and England need a win to have any chance of finishing above them.

England lost the teams’ previous meeting 3-2 at Wembley in September, and coach Thomas Tuchel says his side are ready to challenge Spain.

A win would test how far England have progressed as Tuchel builds a team able to compete with the best.

The match also brings England back to Madrid, where racist abuse was directed at its Black players during a game in 2004.

Tuchel will remind players of anti-racism protocols before the match and says racism will not be accepted.

Tuchel says the result cannot be guaranteed, but England will try to attack Spain and make the game physical.
