Seville, June 15 (Ians) Spain dominated for 90 minutes in their Euro 2020 opener against Sweden but were unable to turn possession and chances into goals as their match ended in a goalless draw on Monday night.
The Spanish controlled with over 80 percent of possession and had 17 shots on the goal, but were unable to get the ball past a solid Robin Olsen as their forwards misfired.
Spain coach Luis Enrique started with 18-year-old midfielder Pedri, who became the youngest player ever to represent Spain in the finals stage of a tournament. Midfielder Koke also started while Alvaro Morata was preferred to Gerard Moreno in attack, Xinhua reports.
The Spanish dominated the first half, pinning the Swedes back in their own half.
Dani Olmo's header after 16 minutes was denied by Olsen.
Koke fired wide, failing to hit the target in the 24th minute. The ball dropped for him in the Swedish area...
