The Spanish national team continue to progress at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. With Diego López and Cristhian Mosquera representing Valencia, the national team beat Japan in the quarter-final on Friday at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais by 0 goals to 3 and have already qualified for the semi-finals.

A Fermín López brace and another one from Abel Ruiz boosted Spain in an afternoon in which they had their best display in the tournament and in which Diego López played a part in the final stretch. The Asturian forward provided the scare in an incident that, as he himself explained on social media, was nothing more than a knock, so he will be available for selection to help the team in the semi-final match.

This coming Monday, 5 August, Spain will face Morocco, a match that will be held in Marseille (6 pm) and where the fight for the medals will begin.
