EURO U/21 GROUP 5 QUALIFIER: SPAIN 2 - POLAND 0

SPAIN has defeated POLAND 2-0 at home (Oviedo) in its Group 5
qualifying match for the next U-21 EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIPS
Finals scheduled for 2011 in Denmark.

Spain has reshaped its team after its disappointing performance in
last June’s Euro Finals in Sweden. With the inclusion of new players
like Parejo & Joselu Mato, Spain went out to attack from the first
moment with a Polish team waiting in its area for opportunities to
arise & thus attempt to surprise with counter-attacks. That
conservatism was punished early when MATO scored for Spain in
the 7th min & Spain could have gone further in the 12th min have
the Polish goalkeeper not stopped Parejo.

The Spanish side sentenced the game in the 2ºhalf when they went
two goals ahead when PAREJO scored in the 58th min with his header.
Sevilla FC winger David Capel deserves a mention as he set up the
first goal & drove the Polish defence crazy all the game & Spanish
goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo who stopped all the dangers when the
Polish team attacked the most to try to close the goal deficit. However,
with the latter the Spanish & Atletico de Madrid goalie was injured
towards the latter part of the game.

Conclusion: Good win for Spain who start well & will play next
Monday against Liechtenstein.

Any opinion on Pedro, Thiago & Jeffren striker? Thanks :)

Striker said...

They are excellent players with a brilliant future ahead, plus they are all from FCB!

LOL, I meant about their performance today in the qualifiers

In this game for Spain only Jeffren played, & was eclipsed by Capel & Mato. Parajo was also outstanding.

Thiago, cant say
