Player of the Match: L. Cordoba
Two Laura Cordoba wonder goals inspired Spain to victory over Thailand in their FIFA Futsal Women’s World Cup Philippines 2025™ curtain-raiser.
Vane Sotelo broke the deadlock in style, but Jenjira Bubpha hit back. Irene Cordoba restored Spain’s advantage with a patented pivot’s effort, only for Sasikarn Tongdee to equalise again. A Laura rocket edged Claudia Pons’ charges ahead once again, and another goal from distance from the same player doubled the lead. Maria Sanz Navarro
Spain will return to action against Colombia on Tuesday, while Thailand will face Canada.
