Discover how Fabián becomes the key pillar that allows his teammates to shine in the Spanish National Team, without needing to be in the media spotlight.

Fabián, the crucial player

Since the Eurocup of 2024, Fabián has turned into the silent engine of the Spanish National Team, standing out for his constant contribution on the field, enabling his teammates to shine in every match. Despite not seeking the limelight, his work is fundamental for the team.

Oyarzabal, the discreet goal scorer

With 25 goals in the National Team, Oyarzabal proves to be a global star, although his low-profile persona keeps him away from being recognized as a star. However, in every match with Spain, he showcases his worth, as seen in the friendly against Peru.

Defined starting lineup

De la Fuente has unveiled the starting eleven for the World Cup, with players like Unai Simón, Fabián, and Oyarzabal in prominent roles. Against Peru, the team that will seek success in the tournament started to take shape.

Defensive shortcomings and offensive virtues

Despite the victory against Peru, Spain displayed defensive shortcomings that need correction for the World Cup, emphasizing the importance of maintaining solidity across all lines. Additionally, quality in set pieces, with players like Grimaldo, can make a difference in crucial matches.
