Barcelona stars Eric Garcia, Pau Cubari and Fermin Lopez all featured as Spain beat Uzbekistan 2-1 in their opening fixture of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The trio were all in from the start as La Roja made hard work of it but eventually came through to claim an important win.
Spain took the lead just before the half-hour mark. A free-kick whipped in by Sergio Gómez was flicked on at the near post by Abel Ruiz and found Marc Pubill to poke home at the back stick.

Yet Uzbekistan managed to level just before the break when Cubarsi gave away a penalty after getting on the wrong side of Mukhammadkodir Khamraliev.
