Spain U-19 Football 

The "re-match" started well for Spain ( bad for Belgium ) when in the 11th min the Belgium goalkeeper Casteels was sent off with a red card for fouling Spanish player Deulofeu. MORATA took the penalty & scored in the 14th min to put Spain ahead. With a numerical advantage Spain dominated the match & created chances, but in the the 48th min & against the grain a terrible mistake by Spanish goalkeeper Badia allowed a long range shot by Belgium player CUVELIER to equalize.

This shook the Spaniards & they really did not recover until ALCACER scored the second for Spain in the 65th min. From here Spain recomposed themselves & began rolling the machine with excellent football. The third came in the 91st min after MUÑIZ scored a "screamer" & the fourth in the 93rd min via MORATA. Special mention for the performance of Deulofeu, Aurtenetxe & Ruben Pardo

Spain takes Top spot of Group B & the important three points that serve as a tranquillizer for the remaining matches. Great start!
