Spain believes that Madrid's "Real" and the national team's forward Raul will manage to emerge from the playing crisis and start scoring goals again in the European Championship.
In the second half of the season, the Spaniard could not seem to improve his form, but the Spaniards believe that Raul will succeed in being one of the team's leaders as usual.
Possible attacking partner for Raul, Fernando Morientes, believes that before the first European Championship match against Russia, Raul will manage to reach excellent form.
"He will recover by the first match," Morientes, who represented the Champions League finalists Monaco this season, said. "Raul is one of the best players in the world, it is very easy to play with him. We know each other's game so well that we could almost play together blindfolded."
The coach of the Spanish national team, Inaki Saezas, had a similar opinion: "He always plays excellently in international championships, and besides - he had a lot of time to recover both physically and psychologically."
"Raul has an innate desire to win in any tournament, so he will surely do everything to ensure that Spain wins," Saezas spoke highly of the national team's forward.
