Canterbury Bankstown FC Overview

Spain outclassed Austria in Los Angeles to reach the last 16 of the 2026 World Cup courtesy of a 3-0 win on Thursday. The European champions avoided any sort of scare by dominating proceedings from the outset, securing a comfortable victory through Mikel Oyarzabal's brace and a header from Pedro Porro as they belatedly clicked into gear at the tournament.

Spain are yet to concede at this summer’s finals, with the lowest xGA in the tournament. Their clash with Austria is a defensive bettor’s dream.

Spain midfielder Gavi has delivered the ultimate compliment to his Barcelona and international team-mate Lamine Yamal, claiming the 18-year-old sensation is the finest player in world football when excluding Lionel Messi. The duo are chasing World Cup glory, with Gavi backing the recovering winger to handle the immense pressure during their knockout campaign.

Lamine Yamal has sent a defiant message to Spain’s World Cup rivals, insisting that Didier Deschamps’ France side are not superior to La Roja. The Barcelona sensation is full of confidence as the tournament enters the knockout stages, sensationally predicting that he will lift the trophy in North America.
