Spain take gamble on Costa fitness; City duo out
Diego Costa and Fernando Torres have been included in Spain’s final squad for the World Cup, but Manchester City pair Alvaro Negredo and Jesus Navas were left out.
Costa was an injury doubt with a hamstring tear after lasting less than 10 minutes for Atletico Madrid in the Champions League final last Saturday and still faces a race against time to be fit for Spain’s first game against Holland on June 13.
