Spain Dominated Costa Rica With 7-0 Win; Gavi Became the Youngest World Cup Scorer

Beginning the FIFA World Cup campaign, Spain started with dominating over Costa Rica with a 7-0 score that justified their intentions in the upcoming matches in the tournament. 

Before the final match, Group E had terrifying teams, but now, Spain might be fearful of facing Germany after dispatching Costa Rica with ultimate ease and achieving their biggest-ever World Cup win, which was in the process. 

Dani Olmo scored the 100th World Cup goal after 11 minutes, and 10 minutes later, Marcon Asensio doubled his effort. 

Ferran Torres scored on the other side of the halftime. Before Gavi netted the pick of the goals, Ferran Torres scored one from the penalty spot and one from the open play and became Spain’s youngest World Cup Goalscorer.

Spain coach Luis Enrique selected two teenagers, Gavi and Pedri, who were outstanding performers in a team that showed neglectable weaknesses, as Carlos and Alvaro Morata completed the scoring. 

While on the other hand, Costa Rica expected to maintain their solid defensive performance and record after starting the game with 8 clean sheets in the previous internationals.

Los Ticos coach Luis Fernando Suarez may need to rethink his tactics after a disastrous opener against Japan.
