"We would like to play in optimal conditions," Villa told the Spanish Football Federation's website. <br /><br />"For our game, a field in better conditions would be better.<br /><br />"But we must be realistic. If the referee does not say otherwise, the match will be played on this pitch. <br /><br />"We must adjust to the situation there and try to find other virtues which we already have, and try to win.<br /><br />"The three points are vital. We are the Spanish team, we need to win to qualify for Euro 2012 as soon as possible and must adapt to whatever comes."<br /><br />Spain are six points clear of the Czech Republic after coming from behind to beat the Czechs on Friday, with Villa's double taking him past Raul as the country's leading scorer.
