Spain defeats Austria 3-0 to advance to the World Cup round of 16

Spain secured a 3-0 victory against Austria in a World Cup match held in Los Angeles before an audience of 70,000 spectators. Mikel Oyarzabal opened the scoring in the 38th minute following an assist from Marc Cucurella. Pedro Porro doubled the lead in the 66th minute with a header, and Oyarzabal scored his second goal in the 89th minute to seal the win. During the match, a Baena free kick hit the crossbar, and a Cucurella goal was disallowed due to a foul by Rodri. Austria's David Alaba prevented another potential goal by clearing a shot from Lamine Yamal off the line in the 84th minute. The victory allows Spain to advance to the round of 16, where they will face either Portugal or Croatia in Dallas on Monday, July 6. Luis de la Fuente managed the Spanish side throughout the match.
