Spain debuts in Qatar with a sensational 7-0 win over Costa Rica.
Luis Enrique's men had fun, created plenty of scoring chances, dominated the opposition in every aspect, scored seven goals and easily secured the first three points in Group E.
Marco Asensio was the surprise of coach Enrique, who entrusted the 26-year-old of Real with the top of the attack. Pedri took control of the game and began to provide fantastic passes to his teammates, as Costa Rica held on for just 11 minutes, with Dani Olmo unlocking the game (Gavi assist)
Spain scored two more goals in the next 20 minutes with Asensio and Ferran Torres (penalty). The Barcelona striker scored his second personal goal in the 54th minute, then there was a celebration and a record for Gavin. The talented 18-year-old scored a fine goal on his World Cup debut, becoming the youngest Spaniard to score at the World Cup, and the third-youngest player in history.
Goals from substitute Charles Soler and Alvaro Morata also came in the final minutes to seal the emphatic triumph for Spain, who return to action on Sunday (November 27th) in an early final against Germany.
