Cesar Azpilicueta was left on the bench as Spain played out a thrilling draw with Portugal.
The defender must have been itching to get on the pitch as he saw his colleagues concede three against their Iberian rivals.
While Gerard Pique and Sergio Ramos are a superb partnership in the middle, Azpi must feel he’s a better shout than Nacho at right back.
The Real Madrid man, filling in for the injured Dani Carvajal, gave away an early penalty when he lunge in on Cristiano Ronaldo.
You don’t often see Azpi, one of the best one on one defenders in the world, doing that.
To be fair, Nacho then made up for his error with a gorgeous volley to put Spain back into the lead later on – we haven’t seen Azpi hit too many sweet volleys like that either.
Maybe the three conceded will mean the Chelsea man gets a go in their next fixture?
