Spain definitively strengthened their World Cup qualification bid with a commanding 2-0 victory over Georgia at the Martinez Valero Stadium in Elche.
This decisive win marked their third straight triumph in the qualifying campaign, catapulting their record to three wins, 11 goals scored, and zero conceded in a group that includes Turkiye and Bulgaria.
Despite the absence of key players like Rodri and Lamine Yamal, Spain dominated the match, maintaining control from start to finish. Yeremy Pino opened the scoring in the 24th minute, capitalizing on a well-placed nod down from Robin Le Normand.
Although Ferran Torres saw a penalty saved later in the first half, Spain continued to apply relentless pressure, with Mikel Merino and Mikel Oyarzabal coming close to extending the lead.
In the second half, Oyarzabal finally broke through in the 64th minute, blasting in a free kick from the edge of the penalty area after Spain had already rattled the woodwork twice.
This performance underscored Spain’s dominance and reinforced their status as serious contenders for the World Cup.
