Group B: Spain better than Finland

In the first match of the 2nd round of Group B at the European Cadet Championship, played at the Pecara Stadium in Široki Brijeg in front of about 250 spectators, the Spanish national team justified its role as the favourite and beat Finland 4:0 (2:0).

Spain imposed its rhythm from the very beginning and had a field initiative, which resulted in a lead in the 18th minute. Judit Pujols ran on one bounced ball and hit the bottom left corner of Finland’s goal from 25 meters. Five minutes later, Spain doubled the advantage, when Carla Camacho scored on an assist by Paula Partido, who had previously made a great pass on the right.

In the continuation of the match, almost the same picture on the pitch. Spain had more than a game, while Finland mostly tried to reduce Spain’s lead from the counterattack. In the 76th minute, Nina Pou tried to lobby the Finnish goalkeeper from the edge of the penalty area, but hit the crossbar. However, Jone Amezaga appeared on the right spot near the post and sent the bounced ball into the net. Three minutes before the end of the match, Magali Capdevila set the final 4:0. Jone Amezaga crossed from the right side, Naara Miranda dropped the ball for Capdevila, who scored the fourth goal for Spain with a precise shot from ten meters.

In the third round of Group B, Spain will play against France in Široki Brijeg, and Finland with Norway in Mostar.
