The new madridista player was one of the most active during the first half, where his offensive runs created danger. In the 44th minute, a cross from him on the left flank was headed by Ferran, but the goalkeeper prevented the 1-0.
After the restart, Spain continued their siege on the opposing goal. However, Cape Verde's defensive solidity and the exceptional performance of their goalkeeper kept the scoreboard unchanged. The team's next challenge will be on June 21 against Saudi Arabia.
