The Spanish National Team will face Costa Rica at the National Stadium of San Jose next Tuesday, and this will be the last friendly match of 2011 for the team. Ater having suffered an unfair defeat against England at Wembley (1-0), Spain wants to complete the year with nice memories in a match that has turned into an amazing event in Costa Rica.
David Villa, one of the footballers that has received more signs of affection since the team has arrived to Costa Rica, played the whole 90 minutes at Wembley, so he may have a rest at the beginning of the game. If Del Bosque decides that he has to dispute the match, the Guaje may turn into one of the ten top goal international european scorers. Villa has scored 50 goals with the National Team and he has just one less goal than Robbie Keane, Hakan Sükur, Lajos Tichy and Thierry Henry, who are at the 10th possition of this list with 51 goals. At he higher part of this ranking we can find the Danish Jon Dahl Tomasson and Poul Nielsen (52); Jan Koller and Joachim Streich (55); the Hungarian Scholosser (59); the German Miroslav Klose (62) and "Torpedo Muller" (68); and the Hungarian Sandor Kocsis (75), and at the top of thel ist, Ferenc Puskas (84 goals in 89 matches).
