Spain cruised into the last 16 of the World Cup with a 3-0 victory over Austria in the round of 32 in Los Angeles.
Mikel Oyarzabal finished off a slick move to open the scoring in the first half, moments after Marc Cucurella was controversially denied the opener after another soft foul on a goalkeeper was given.
But in truth, it didn’t matter with La Roja dictating proceedings from start to finish, with Pedro Porro’s first international goal on 66 minutes doubling their advantage and taking the game away from Austria.
A number of more chances went begging before Oyarzabal grabbed his second of the game from another Cucurella assist to top their best performance of the tournament so far.
Spain will play either Croatia or Portugal in the last 16 as they hunt for a second World Cup triumph – and judging by that performance they will be a team most will want to avoid in the latter stages.
