Fernando Torres: 'Spain must stay cool'

Spain striker Fernando Torres has claimed that the team must not panic following their 5-1 defeat to the Netherlands at the World Cup.

The reigning champions were torn apart on Friday evening as the defence of their crown got off to a disastrous start.

With an encounter against Chile up next for Spain, Torres has urged his teammates to 'stay cool' in their quest to reach the second round.

"It's pretty clear that the situation is a whole lot trickier after this defeat," he told FIFA.com. "You have to win and your opponents know you have to win. You can't even afford to draw, and they'll try to make the most of any anxiety we might be feeling.

"We've all spoken about it and we know we have to keep a cool head. We're still the same players and we know we can beat anyone. That's the attitude we'll be taking into the Chile game."

Spain take on Chile in Rio de Janeiro on Wednesday night.
