Asensio: "I'm very happy with the goal"

The hangover from Spain-Costa Rica only leaves positive reactions.

And one of the players who has come out stronger is Marco Asensio, a substitute at Real Madrid, but who started as a starter for Luis Enrique in the World Cup debut.

"I'm very good, a great game came out in general for the whole team and I personally am very happy for the goal and for being able to contribute many things to the team. I'm adjusting to what the coach asks of me, but I'm very comfortable with what that he is transmitting to me and the confidence that he is giving me", Asensio stated this Thursday at a press conference.

This has been the highlight of the fourth day of the World Cup: 

Spain thrashes Costa Rica in their World Cup debut.

The Spanish team has achieved a historic win against Costa Rica in its debut at the World Cup in Qatar.

Ferran Torres has scored two goals, adding to those of Dani Olmo, Asensio, Gavi, Carlos Soler and Morata to round off the most bulky result for Spain in a World Cup match.

Luis Enrique's men completed an almost perfect match, with many chances in their favor and without letting Costa Rica leave their field.

The Costa Ricans have not been able to finish off on goal even once. 

Japan surprises by beating Germany.

The German team has lost to Japan (1-2) and begins its World Cup career with a defeat for the second consecutive edition.

Gundogan has passed Flick's men, but with the changes, the game has gotten out of control and Japan has equalized the contest through Doan.

Later, a great goal from Asano with almost no angle set off the surprise.

German pressure from the start of the game had generated many dangerous situations. 

Players of the German national team cover their mouths in protest before the game against Japan.

Footballers have made this gesture in protest of pressure from FIFA to prevent national team captains from wearing OneLove armbands during matches.

The organization threatened the teams with yellow cards if they wore these bracelets.

That was enough for the team led by Roberto Martínez to finish the first day of the World Cup leading their group, after the draw between Croatia and Morocco in the morning.

Luis Enrique: "It has always been said that this team lacks a goal, but we get to it in an associative way"

Ladislao J. Monino

The openwork casing with Arabic motifs that surrounded the Al Thumama stadium enclosed within it the silences typical of the artificial fans that are common in this World Cup.

There were not many Spaniards and the noisy Costa Ricans located in one of the funds had little time to show enthusiasm.

Luis Enrique's team was in charge of breaking those silences with seven goals and a catwalk of details and technical gestures that broke into murmurs of admiration.

The architects of the exhibition of Spain against Costa Rica, one by one

Lorenzo Calonge

A scandalous win, as exciting and historic as the one the Spanish team starred in against Costa Rica (7-0) in their World Cup debut game in Qatar, has multiple protagonists.

Scorers, especially, but not only strikers like Marco Asensio or Morata, who in the last minutes of the match got rid of the fears (if he had them) that gripped him in the first games of the last Euro Cup.

Also midfielders, like Carlos Soler or Gavi, the youngest on the team.

This is the analysis, one by one, of the architects of the exhibition of the Red in his debut.

Hace tiempo que lo tenemos claro. Lo hemos estado discutiendo en la región nórdica desde agosto”, dijo Möller.

“Lo hemos vuelto a pensar ahora. Me imagino que puede haber desafíos si Dinamarca se va sola. Tenemos que pensar en la cuestión de cómo restaurar la confianza en la FIFA. Debemos evaluar lo que ha sucedido y luego debemos crear una estrategia, también con nuestros colegas nórdicos”, añadió.
