World Cup 2014: Spain claims exaggerated - Xabi Alonso Claims that reigning World Cup holders Spain are no longer the force they were have been exaggerated, says midfielder Xabi Alonso. Spain face Chile in Rio on Wednesday keen to atone for their 5-1 humiliation by the Netherlands. The 32-year-old Real Madrid player said: What youve heard in the press seems a little exaggerated to me. You cannot consider that this generation is finished. On the contrary, we are still alive.

Spain midfielder Cesc Fabregas says the clash with Chile is life or death Alonso, who has made 110 caps for Spain, added: We want to demonstrate that and we have a perfect opportunity to do so. We still have a lot of things to say and we can still compete. Striker Fernando Torres admitted nothing but victory would do, and conceded Spain may have to alter their approach to avoid an early exit. The important thing is that we win, hopefully in our usual style, at the high level that allowed us to win the World Cup and the Euros, said the Chelsea striker, 30. And if we cant win like that, we have to win any way we can, because otherwise well have to go back home.
