David Luiz wants Brazil vs. Spain game

Brazil's David Luiz sets his sights on a Confederations Cup match with Spain.

Brazil defender David Luiz is eyeing a Confederations Cup clash with Spain.

The host nation kicked off the tournament with a 3-0 win over Japan on Saturday before the World Champions beat Uruguay 2-1 a day later.

Should they both progress from their respective groups, the two sides could face each other in either the semi-final or final of the competition and Chelsea centre-back Luiz is relishing the potential clash.

"I think we all want to play against Spain. For me in particular, I love to play against them here [in Brazil]," Luiz told reporters.

"The Spanish are a great team at the moment. They are mature and play nice football. They have many great individuals and they are a really great team."

The teams have not played each other since a 0-0 draw at Estadio de Balaidos in November 1999.
