Things to say
Spain beat Austria 3-0 at SoFi Stadium to keep a clean sheet at the World Cup.
01

Spain absolutely paddled Austria, three-nil. Never really in doubt. Austria managed one shot the whole game.
02
key player
Oyarzabal was everywhere up top, six shots on his own. Austria had no answer for him.
03
hot take
Honestly the score flatters Austria. Schlager made six saves or it's five or six.
04
deep cut
Rodri just ran the midfield, 85 accurate passes. Danso made 14 defensive interventions and still shipped three.
05
exit
Spain look scary right now. Curious who they draw in the next round.
The recap
Spain put Austria to the sword at SoFi, a 3-0 job that never felt in doubt once they got rolling. Oyarzabal was the danger man all night, peppering the goal with six shots while Rodri pulled the strings in midfield with 85 accurate passes.
Austria barely showed up going forward, mustering a single shot the whole match, and only keeper Alexander Schlager's six saves kept it from being an outright paddling. Clean sheet, comfortable win, Spain march on.
