Spain boss Julen Lopetegui has hinted that he has brought a new playing style to the La Roja national team.
Lopetegui replaced Vicente del Bosque as head coach of Spain after Euro 2016, and his first match in charge will be an international friendly against Roberto Martinez's Belgium team on Thursday night.
The 50-year-old insists that Spain will not abandon their values of ball possession, but also claims that his team will concentrate on being organised and difficult to break down.
"It is about believing in what this group has to offer and organising ourselves to do it. We have a clear idea around which to build. We are comfortable with the ball, but that doesn't mean we won't press, we're not organised and we don't challenge for the second ball," Lopetegui told reporters.
"It is a precious match in a great setting. They are a team of a very high level. That makes us more excited. They have a lot of good players, but so do we."
Lopetegui's competitive debut as Spain boss will come in their 2018 World Cup qualifier against Liechtenstein on Monday night.
