Spain coach: 'We need to improve in defence the most'

If France can avoid a defeat at the hands of Honduras at the Indira Gandhi Stadium, Guwahati on October 14, then one of the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup round of 16 games will see the French meeting European champions Spain, in a replay of a European quarter-final played earlier this year in Croatia.

Spain confirmed their place for the clash by sealing second place in Group D with a 2-0 win over North Korea in Kochi on Friday evening, and are slated to meet the winners of Group E in the next round....
