Curitiba (Brazil), June 11 (IANS/EFE) The Spanish team is concerned about the temperature changes during the FIFA World Cup in Brazil which kicks off Thursday.

Spain is camping here where temperatures reach 10 degrees Celcius while the team will play their opener against the Netherlands in Salvador where the temperature is expected to reach 24 degrees, reports EFE.

Spanish striker Diego Costa said that the weather is a major concern because players got used to playing the majority of the season during winter, so it will be a bit difficult.

Barcelona's Sergio Busquets explained that the temperatures here range between 10-15 degrees which is considered excellent for training preparations but it will increase to 25 degrees in Salvador and Rio de Janeiro.
