Spain had an impressive performance when winning 3-1 against the Dominican Republic in the most recent match. Coach Santi Denia and his team are currently one of three teams in men's soccer with a winning record after the first two rounds.
Barcelona midfielder Fermin Lopez is one of the standout stars. He was directly involved in 2 of Spain's 3 goals against the Dominican Republic.
