Fati teamed up well some of the other youngsters giving Spain hope of a successful campaign in Qatar, with Gavi Páez and Nico Williams also scoring a goal each in the team바카라s final match before its World Cup opener against Costa Rica on Nov. 23.

바카라That바카라s some great news for us,바카라 Spain coach Luis Enrique said of Fati바카라s performance. 바카라He has a good relationship with the goal.바카라

Fati scored on a shot from inside the area in the 13th minute before Gavi doubled the lead from near the penalty spot in the 56th. Williams, who replaced Fati in the 72nd, made it 3-0 with a cross shot from inside the box in the 84th.

바카라I liked what I see from the team,바카라 Luis Enrique said. 바카라I see it with the right attitude. Sometimes, when you play a friendly so close to the World Cup, you don바카라t play a good match, because the players are so focused on the World Cup, but everything went well and now we can start preparing for Costa Rica.바카라

Luis Enrique had some high praise for Marco Asensio, who set up Fati바카라s goal.

바카라He was at a different level,바카라 the coach said of Asensio, who played as a striker in the absence of Álvaro Morata.

Hamza Al-Dardour scored for Jordan in second-half stoppage time at Amman International Stadium in Jordan.

Fati had not played for Spain since making his fourth appearance as a teenager in October 2020, shortly after breaking the record for Spain바카라s youngest scorer. He had not been called up by coach Luis Enrique in the last international break before the World Cup, when the 20-year-old forward was not playing often with Barcelona.

He is one of the many youngsters selected by Luis Enrique to Spain바카라s revamped squad, along with 19-year-old Pedri González, 20-year-old Williams, and 18-year-old Gavi, who had broken Fati바카라s record by scoring his first goal for Spain at the age of 17 years, 304 days.

After the Group E opener against Costa Rica, Spain faces Germany in one of the most-anticipated matches of the tournament and then takes on Japan.

Luis Enrique couldn바카라t count on José Luis Gayà because of a right ankle injury sustained in Wednesday바카라s training session. Also not available for Thursday바카라s match were Morata, Hugo Guillamón and Marcos Llorente, who had not been fully fit and missed practice at the start of Spain바카라s preparations.

Luis Enrique said a decision on whether Gayà will remain with the squad is expected to be made on Friday.
