The Barça man put on a show in Lyon

Barcelona young star Fermín López was the star of the show as Spain booked a place in the Olympics men’s football tournament semi-finals thanks to a comprehensive 3-0 win over Japan in Friday’s quarter-final in Lyon.

La Roja dominated from the start and didn’t need to wait much to take the lead, with Fermín launching a left-footed rocket from outside the box just 10 minutes into the action:

Spain continued to control the action and look for more goals, and they found it halfway through the final period thanks to an outrageous strike by Fermín, who scored his second of the night in truly spectacular fashion:

Former Barça striker Abel Ruiz finished things off late in the second half to complete the victory and set up a high-profile semi-final against Morocco on Monday, with Spain now very close to a medal in Paris.
