Spain played a good game against Italy with Nico Williams and Mark Gugurella being the best players in the match.
Barcelona — Spain made its second appearance at Euro 2024 in a litmus test against Italy in which Group B dominance was at stake, overcoming it with a 1-0 victory.
Did the soccer players used by coach Luis de la Fuente comply? One of the most notable left Mark Gugurella.
Below is one after another of 'The Red Fury'.
UNAI SIMÓN 6 Keep calm.
He was hardly a spectator until the final, when Italy pressed urgently in search of an equaliser, at which point he responded without pressure.
Carvajal 7 is hard.
He didn't join the attack as quickly as he did in his debut against Croatia. Aware of his teammates' control of the situation, he deftly tackled Italian counterattacks and showed himself to be very tough. When he came up, yes, he reached an understanding with Lamin Yamal.
LAPORTE 5 surprise.
The only change to the starting eleven, he came in for Nacho and showed a lack of rhythm, as well as understanding and some slowness. Few Italian visits avoided fear.
LE NORMAND 5 Bus.
A partner change in the center of defense hurt him. He found it difficult to find space and connect calmly when picking up the ball from behind.
CUCURELLA 8 tireless.
Nico's wonderful partner in attack, with whom he seems to be getting on better every day, regaining his position in defense when needed with an extra effort. He gave Petrie half a goal and his attacks always involved judgment and danger.
Rhodri 6 is allowed.
He did not play in the clash against Croatia, but he showed good judgment and composure in the pass. He will not be able to play against Albania due to concussion.
FABIÁN RUIZ 8 is essential.
Important against Croatia, again against the Italians he had a great performance. If he came into the match as a less obvious starter in midfield, he had an undisputed place in two games. Super with the ball and without the ball. Required at all times.
PEDRI 6 was awarded.
Clever in the mix and poised in position, he took his place without stress
As a midfielder, he came close to the goal with two shots at the start of the first and second half.
Nico Williams 9 Show.
He drove the Italian defense crazy, starting with Di Lorenzo and ending with Donnarumma. Electric in pace, excellent on the rebound and superb with combinations and crosses, he scored with a header after ten minutes and 'assisted' Calafiori's own goal to make it 1-0 with a superb low cross. , before crashing a whip into the crosshead.
Lamine Yamal 7 is shameless.
He faced fearlessly, he sped diagonally and vertically. He combined with Carvajal and Petri to score a goal with a long shot that missed the target in the second half.
Morata 6 sub.
He combines, scrambles, looks for the shot and knows how to draw defenders and get out of his zone to open holes for his teammates.
Dani Olmo 5 New.
He replaced Pethri in the latter half of the game to provide more freshness in his area. He may have no physical existence.
OYARZABAL 5 reduced.
He replaced Morata, finding himself a false nine, with more work than success, well-marked and without a chance to shine.
Merino 5 is overrated.
Nico's exit is more noticeable than his entrance. Strong and intense, he was hard to connect with.
FERRAN TORRES 6 quick.
He entered the final region through Lamin Yamal. His movement overwhelmed the Italian defenses.
ZUBIMENDI 5 Ordinary.
He made no impact as a replacement for Rodry.
