Fernando Torres gave his view on Spain's 2014 World Cup group. The Spaniards will start their defence of the trophy against Holland on Friday and Torres believes underdogs Chile could surprise everyone.
"It's a difficult group for both Holland and Spain because Chile pose a threat. They are a great team and have not been valued highly enough. We've played them on several occasions and know what's in store", Torres said.
"Everyone may think that Holland and Spain are the favourites, but you can't forget about Chile or Australia. Both teams could cause us problems in the group if we are not in the right frame of mind required at the World Cup", he added.
"It's difficult starting the Brazil World Cup against Holland, but also very exciting. We beat them to become world champions and they will want to get their own back. It's our first game and we clearly remember what happened four years ago. We don't want to make the same mistakes we made against Switzerland, which would make it difficult afterwards", Torres continued.
The Spain forward believes his team will put on a display worthy of the occasion against the Dutch. "These are the opponents we like to play against most. Top teams that mean you have to be at your best. We're looking forward to it".
