Lamine Yamal gave Spain the perfect start as they swept past Saudi Arabia with a dominant 4-0 win in Group H.
Spain needed only 10 minutes to break the game open, and it was Yamal who delivered the first big moment. His early goal immediately changed the mood of the match and gave Spain total control. From there, Saudi Arabia were forced to chase the game, while Spain played with confidence, speed and calm passing.
Mikel Oyarzabal then turned Spain’s good start into a statement. He scored twice in quick succession, first in the 21st minute and again in the 24th minute, punishing Saudi Arabia before they could recover. In less than half an hour, Spain were already three goals ahead and the match looked almost finished.
Saudi Arabia tried to reset after the break, but Spain struck again early in the second half. A 49th-minute own goal by Hassan Altambakti made it 4-0 and ended any hope of a comeback.
It was the kind of performance Spain wanted: fast start, clean control, and no drama. Yamal’s early goal set the tone, Oyarzabal added the cutting edge, and Spain walked away with a strong win that sends a clear message in Group H.
For Saudi Arabia, it was a difficult night. They made changes and tried to respond, but Spain’s pressure and quality in the final third were too much.
Final score: Spain 4-0 Saudi Arabia.
