Spain Gives Strong Reminder to World Cup Rivals as England's Villain Scores Two Goals

Spain beat Saudi Arabia in Atlanta.

They are European champions for a reason. After a 0-0 draw with Cape Verde, Spain had something to prove.

Spain quickly showed they were strong. Lamine Yamal scored his first World Cup goal, and Mikel Oyarzabal scored two more.

England fans know Oyarzabal. He scored the winning goal against England in the Euro 2024 final. Spain's coach made changes and it worked.

Some players were replaced. Pedro Porro, Dani Olmo, Alex Baena, and Yamal played instead of others.

Yamal's goal was simple but important. He needs to score like this to be as good as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Oyarzabal scored two goals by running behind the Saudi defense. He also helped another player score.

Will Spain win the World Cup? Tell us what you think.

Lamine Yamal scored his first World Cup goal.

But the coach took him out of the game at half-time. He wanted to save him for the next game.

Yamal got hurt before, so the coach was careful. Spain has many good players, so they can make changes.

After half-time, Spain scored again. The ball bounced off a Saudi player and into the goal.

Mikel Oyarzabal did not get to score a third goal because he was taken out.

Spain's substitutes played well. One player almost scored but was stopped by the video referee.

Saudi Arabia can still win and go to the next round. They need to beat Cape Verde.
