Despite a player mutiny and controversy surrounding the Spanish women's soccer team, coach Jorge Vilda insists that his squad is united and focused on their goals. Vilda addressed the media ahead of their World Cup quarterfinal game against the Netherlands, stating that the team is "fighting for the same objective" and are "very motivated."

Last September, 15 players declared themselves unavailable for selection, citing events that impacted their emotional and physical health. The players directed most of their complaints at Vilda, but the Spanish federation stood by the coach. Although only six of those players are currently on the World Cup roster, the team has already made history by qualifying for the quarterfinals for the first time in three appearances.

Vilda emphasized the team's commitment and shared responsibility, stating, "We are a team, not only the players, but all the technical staff. If we win, we all win, and if we lose, we all lose." He also expressed confidence in his current roster and dismissed any concerns about a player who previously switched teams due to issues with Vilda.

Despite the controversies, Vilda praised the players' professionalism and hard work throughout the World Cup. With their unity and determination, the Spanish team aims to continue their journey in the tournament.
