Hierro: This Spain team similar to 2010 World Cup champions

Spain coach Fernando Hierro believes his team are similar to the one that won the 2010 World Cup.

A 1-0 win over Iran saw Spain move top of Group B, putting them on track to reach the knockout stage.

"It's a similar group, know that you can't have clones unfortunately," he told Onda Cero.

"But we have a backup group pushing for places every day. That is the only way to avoid relaxing, by having a group of team-mates that push you closer to the limit every day.

"And we have [Cesar] Azpilicueta, [Nacho] Monreal, Saul [Niguez], Koke, [Alvaro] Odriozola, Iago Aspas, Rodrigo and Thiago [Alcantara]. They don't allow the others to rest.

"It's beautiful to see them training and they can be important at any moment."

Spain only need a point against Morocco Monday to seal their spot in the last 16.
