🎮 That's just unfair! The world's best team get a new cheat code

That's just unfair! The world's best team, Spain, has received a new cheat code in the form of an emerging striker named Roberto Fernández. Spain, the current European champions at the U19 level, as well as European and world champions at the senior level, have not had an absolute top-class striker during their impressive 2024 Euro victory. The main players at the forward position, Álvaro Morata and Mikel Oyarzabal, are indeed talented but not among the very best in their position.

Fernández, a 24-year-old currently playing for Espanyol Barcelona, has had a stellar start to the new season. He has scored six goals in seven league matches so far, which could surpass his previous season's tally of seven goals. Fernández is set to feature for the Spanish national team for the first time during the current international break, with his side facing Croatia twice, England, and the Czech Republic in the Nations League.

The newcomer has a potentially decisive advantage with his imposing 1.86m frame, making him taller and more robust than his fellow forwards. As a "classic number nine," Fernández possesses solid aerial ability and can also pose a threat from crosses. Spain's coach, Luis de La Fuente, praised Fernández, saying he fits their style of play and footballing philosophy.

If Fernández can carry his impressive club form into the national team and settle into Spain's already functioning superbly, Spain could truly have another weapon at their disposal, making it "just unfair."
