Spain will look to put things right after a disappointing start when they face Mexico in their second Group C outing at the FIFA U-20 World Cup.
The young La Roja suffered a 2-0 defeat to Morocco in their tournament opener at Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in Santiago, Chile, despite controlling large spells of the match.
Spain dominated the ball in the first half, enjoying nearly 67% possession compared to Morocco's 33%, and fired off 10 attempts on goal to their opponents' eight. However, despite their control, they were undone by Morocco's clinical finishing and defensive resilience.
Mexico kicked off their FIFA U-20 World Cup journey with an entertaining 2-2 draw against South American powerhouse Brazil on Sunday night in Santiago, Chile, according to SportsRation. Alexei Dominguez put Mexico ahead early in the 10th minute, finishing from close range after Brazil's defense was caught napping. The South Americans responded in the 21st minute when Rafael Coutinho unleashed a curling left-footed effort from outside the box to level the score.
After the interval, Brazil looked the more threatening side and took the lead in the 76th minute when Luighi Hanri tapped in from close range. Just as the Selecao appeared poised to claim the win, Diego Ochoa rose to head home from a corner in the 86th minute, securing a dramatic late equalizer for Mexico.

Team news & squads
Spain U20 team news
Spain U20 were stunned by Morocco in their tournament opener and now approach this clash with victory as the only acceptable outcome.
With Jon Martin sidelined through injury, Andres Cuenca will likely slot in at centre-back alongside Pau Navarro, while Iker Bravo will spearhead the attack.
Mexico U20 team news
Mexico, who haven't made much noise at this level in recent editions, will take plenty of encouragement from going toe-to-toe with one of the pre-tournament favorites and earning a point in their opener.
The performance against Brazil served as a statement of intent, with the midfield trio of Obed Vargas, GilbertoMora, and Elias Montiel standing out as they dictated large stretches of play. Still, for all the possession Mexico enjoyed, their shortcomings in the attacking third were evident, as Brazil carved out the clearer chances and looked more dangerous on the counter.
If Mexico can sharpen their edge in front of goal while maintaining the same composure and energy shown in midfield, they could not only surpass expectations but also put together a memorable run in this World Cup.
