Spanish head coach De la Fuente remarked, "With Alvaro, we are going to wait until tomorrow. We don't think it was anything serious; it happened during the celebrations, but we believe he's going to be OK." Spain awaits either England or Netherlands who will battle it out in the second semifinals tonight.
