Spain's reliance on Real Madrid superstars means nothing to Luis Enrique

There were six Los Blanco's stars in Spain's starting line-up against Croatia, but the head coach is not interested in their club allegiances

Luis Enrique insisted it did not matter in the slightest that over half of Spain's starting line-up against Croatia were Real Madrid players.

La Roja destroyed the World Cup finalists in the Nations League clash in Elche on Tuesday, breezing to a 6-0 triumph, the biggest defeat in their opponents' entire history.

Madrid superstars Dani Carvajal, Sergio Ramos, Nacho Fernandez, Dani Ceballos, Isco and Marco Asensio all started the match, while Sergio Busquets featured as the only Barcelona player in the first 11.
