Second round today, valid for the quarter-finals of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and…the verdict has been announced. After Morocco’s passage to the next round and the United States being crushed, here is the Spain of Santi Denia who gets rid of the Japan Under 23 with a clear 3-0. Semi-final reached, appointment for next Monday (August 5th) against the Morocco.
It’s all too easy for the Spanish national team, which really wants to replicate the glorious path of the “big boys” at the European Championships in Germany: Fermin Lopez opened the scoring after just 11 minutes at the Groupama Stadium in Lyon on an assist from Barrios, while in the 43rd minute the Japanese had the illusion of an equaliser with Hosoya, a goal cancelled out by VAR and the teams went to half-time with the score at 1-0.
In the second half, Spain managed the pitch and the ball completely, with the Barcelona player repeating himself and scoring a brace, then Abel Ruiz’s touch in the 86th minute to score the third and close the game. Worth noting was on the pitch for the entire 90 minutes in the victory of the baby team Red Furies Juan Mirandanew left back owned by Bologna and former Inter target.
