Ayoze and Fermín dazzle with an attacking sparkle on debut
It was the day to demonstrate the dazzling talent in this Spain squad, and dazzle is just what Ayoze Pérez and Fermín López did on Wednesday evening in Badajoz. The two debutants put on a show in Spain's thrashing of Andorra in the first of their two warm-up matches for the European Championships.
The Canary Islands striker was in the starting line-up and had a great game, scoring the first goal of the match with a spectacular driven shot on the turn after reacting fastest in a crowded area.
Ten years ago, Ayoze played two matches with the U-21 national team, and now, at the age of 30 he has made his debut under the orders of Luis de la Fuente on an unforgettable evening for the player from Tenerife.
For his part, the Huelva-born Fermín López came on during the second half against Andorra in place of Pedri just a few weeks after his 21st birthday.
Fermín has been capped six times at Under-21 level and last season played for Linares Deportivo, in the Primera Federación, where he also played at the Nuevo Vivero stadium.
The Badajoz stadium saw the debut of the player from El Campillo on Wednesday, who stood out for his unpredictability and effectiveness, providing assists for the last two goals against the Andorran team.
