Ferran Torres had a disappointing performance against Cape Verde. |
Throughout the more than 80 minutes he played in Spain's opening match at the 2026 World Cup, Torres only had one shot on target, but it didn't result in a goal. His pass completion rate was 76%, a not-so-high figure compared to other players.
What fans really need from him is the ability to combine with Mikel Oyarzabal. But both players showed a lack of effectiveness in front of Vozinha's goal.
Barcelona fans clearly expressed their disappointment with the player's performance. "He doesn't deserve this position," one commenter wrote. Another shared: "Besides his sleek hair, what else does he have to impress?"
Entering this match, the Spanish players were considered far superior to their opponents. They were the reigning European champions and former World Cup winners. Coach La Fuente's team was a collection of superstars playing in top European leagues. However, all of that was not enough to defeat Cape Verde.
Goalkeeper Vozinha and the entire team played solidly throughout the match. Even Ferran Torres, Oyarzabal, and Lamine Yamal, when they came on as substitutes, couldn't break through the African team's defense. As a result, Cape Verde created the biggest upset of the 2026 World Cup so far, holding Spain to a 0-0 draw.
Spain still faces two tough challenges in Group H: Uruguay and Saudi Arabia. Both are experienced World Cup teams, and fans are hoping for improvements from the team, especially in the attacking line.
