Spain eased to a clean 3-0 win over Serbia in Villarreal, guided by a familiar midfield rhythm. Rodri completed 100 of 107 passes and posted a Sofascore Rating of 7.2 as Spain controlled the international friendly from the first whistle. Mikel Oyarzabal scored twice before the break, and Victor Muñoz added a late third in front of 20,482 fans at Estadio de la Ceramica.

Rodri’s control, Spain’s platform

The holding midfielder set the tempo with 115 touches, most in the match, and 23 passes into the final third. He also logged eight final-third entries, five ball recoveries and two clearances across 77 minutes before Martín Zubimendi came on. Spain’s 4-2-3-1 looked comfortable with him anchoring play, and the numbers backed it up.

Oyarzabal at the double

Oyarzabal opened the scoring on 16 minutes from Fermín López’s pass, then struck again on 43 minutes after Pau Cubarsí’s line-splitting assist. Spain went to halftime 2-0 up and in full control. Lamine Yamal clipped the woodwork during a lively first half cameo that stretched Serbia’s back line.

Bench impact seals it

Second-half changes kept the pressure on. Ferran Torres entered on 63 minutes and soon delivered the killer ball for Victor Muñoz to make it 3-0 on 72 minutes. Dani Olmo and Pablo Fornals came at halftime to maintain Spain’s intensity, while Torres finished with two key passes and an assist.

The stats tell the story

Spain had 71% possession, a 14-2 shot advantage and xG of 2.02 to 0.14. They completed 799 passes to Serbia’s 315 with 62 final-third entries. Unai Simón needed only two saves, while Serbia’s Vanja Milinković-Savić made five. For Serbia, Sergej Milinković-Savić battled hard in duels, but the visitors were limited to two shots on target all night.
