Spain kicked off their Euro 2024 campaign with a dominant 3-0 victory over Croatia, highlighted by 16-year-old Lamine Yamal becoming the youngest player in the tournament's history and providing an assist. Alvaro Morata opened the scoring in the 29th minute, followed quickly by a goal from Fabian Ruiz. Just before half-time, Yamal assisted Dani Carvajal for Spain's third goal, effectively sealing the win. Croatia struggled to capitalize on several opportunities, including a missed penalty by Bruno Petkovic. This strong performance underscores Spain's potential to contend for a fourth European Championship title, while Croatia faces an uphill battle in the 'Group of Death' with upcoming matches against Albania and Italy.
