THE BIGGER PICTURE: Gavi’s strike made him the youngest scorer in the World Cup since Pele in 1958, and Spain’s youngest ever goalscorer in the history of the competition. His goal helped pull Spain even further away from Costa Rica, with the game finishing 7-0. The result puts the Spain top of Group E on goal difference after Japan’s memorable victory over Germany earlier in the day.

WHAT NEXT FOR SPAIN? Buoyed by a dominant opening day display, Spain take on Germany next in what will be a must-win match for Hansi Flick’s side.
