Spain Continue Euro 2024 Dominance with Win
Torres' Strike Seals Second Straight Win
Spain continued their impressive start to Euro 2024 with a 1-0 victory over Albania at Merkur Spiel-Arena in Dusseldorf on Monday. Ferran Torres' solitary strike in the 54th minute proved to be the difference as Spain extended their lead at the top of Group E.
Dominant Display
Spain showcased their superiority throughout the match, controlling possession and creating several scoring opportunities. They had 68% of possession and completed 430 passes compared to Albania's 250. La Roja also created 15 shots on target to Albania's two.
Torres' goal came after a well-worked move that started with Jordi Alba on the left flank. Alba's cross found Torres inside the six-yard box, and the forward calmly slotted the ball past Etrit Berisha in the Albanian goal.
Conclusion
Spain's victory keeps them firmly on track for progression to the knockout stages. With two wins from two, they need only avoid defeat against the Netherlands in their final group match to secure qualification. Albania, meanwhile, face an uphill battle to reach the last 16, having lost both their opening fixtures.
