Fermín takes Spain into the semis

He is already well-known, but Fermín López put himself even more in the spotlight after his performance in the Olympic Games quarterfinal, as his brace helped Spain into the semifinals of the tournament.

Both goals were the highlight of a very complete performance from the blaugrana. Fermín led the Spanish attack, but was also the first to press and regain possession.

Two goals worthy of display in the Louvre

The first didn't take long, as he slapped a left foot shot from outside the area into the net after 11 minutes. He had further chances before scoring his second, which came after 73 minutes, a thunderbolt of a strike from outside the area resulting from a corner routine, which made it 0-2 and putting qualification well within reach.

Ten minutes later on 83 minutes, the midfielder left the pitch to the applause of all those watching on after a job well done.
