Japan's Olympic code has been deciphered. The "Samurai Blue"'s lack of experience has been exposed, after a perfect record and a clean sheet in the group stage of the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Considered a candidate for the gold medal, Olympic Spain only needed 11 minutes to open the score. Fermin Lopez showed his class as a Barcelona star with a superb shot.

In the second half, when Japan tried to find an equalizer, Fermin scored another great goal to double the gap. The Asian football representative completely collapsed and conceded another goal with a close-range shot from Abel Ruiz.

Spain will face Morocco in the semi-finals, who cruised to a 4-0 victory over the United States in the first quarter-final.

Goals: Fermin Lopez 11', 73', Abel Ruiz 86'.

Starting lineup:

Japan (4-3-3): Kokubo; Hiroki, Takai, Kimura, Ohata; Fujita, Yamamoto, Mito; Yamada, Hosoya, Saito.

Spain (4-2-3-1): Arnau Tenas; Marc Pubill, Eric Garcia, Pau Cubarsi, Juan Miranda; Pablo Barrios, Alex Baena; Aimar Oroz, Fermin Lopez, Sergio Gomez; Abel Ruiz.
