Paco Alcacer: 'Spain will be on top form versus Ukraine'

Alcacer: 'Spain will be on top form'

Spain forward Paco Alcacer has insisted that his country will not give anything less than 100% in their final Euro 2016 qualifier away to Ukraine on Monday evening.

La Roja secured their spot at next summer's international tournament when they beat Luxembourg last week, with Alcacer scoring twice in the comfortable 4-0 victory.

The European champions will have a say who finishes second in Group C, however, with Ukraine currently trailing second-place Slovakia in the section due to their inferior head-to-head record.

Valencia forward Alcacer has claimed that his team will still be at full throttle in Kiev because "Spain always have to give a good account of themselves".

"We're very happy with qualification, but against Ukraine we won't give any less. Spain always have to give a good account of themselves," Alcacer told Onda Cero. "Playing with the world's best team makes things easier. My goals aren't scored alone, they're thanks to my teammates, who are very good."

Alcacer has netted six times in nine appearances for his country.
