JAKARTA - Spain started the Euro 2024 campaign with a landslide 3-0 win over Croatia in Berlin on Saturday night, June 15. Alvaro Morata, Fabian Ruiz, and Dani Carvajal have netted in this match.
La Roja immediately topped Group B after appearing impressive, showing that they could be serious competitors to win trophies this summer.
Spain, which won Europe in 1964, 2008, and 2012, has so far not been named the main favorites to become champions in Germany. However, they performed very well in the opening match, while Croatia were unable to provide an adequate response to their quality.
Spain's three goals were created in the first half; although Croatia thought they could reply through Bruno Petkovic, his goal after failing to execute the penalty was disallowed due to offside. This made La Roja succeed in maintaining the clean sheet.
Barcelona's young player, Lamine Yamal, made history by becoming the youngest player to ever appear in the European Championships, aged only 16 years and 338 days, and he performed brilliantly in his tournament debut with the Spanish national team.
Croatian captain Luka Modric, 38, led Zlatko Dalic's team, while Josko Gvardiol also enlivened the squad after impressed with Premier League champions Manchester City.
Spain is now at the top of Group B and will continue their fight against Italy on June 20. Meanwhile, Croatia will try to rise from this embarrassing defeat when they face Albania on June 19.
