Here Is The Easy Money-Making Trick Everyone Is Talking About! Learn More Here!

After being crowned European champions last month, Spain have clinched Olympic gold with a stellar victory over host nation France at the Paris Olympics.

Three standout Barcelona stars spearheaded the team throughout the tournament: Pau Cubarsi, Eric Garcia, and Fermin Lopez.

As the central defensive pairing, Pau Cubarsi and Eric Garcia proved to be the backbone of the Spanish squad.

Meanwhile, Fermin Lopez orchestrated the game from midfield, playing a pivotal role as an attacking midfielder.

The trio’s exceptional performance culminated in earning them the prestigious Olympic gold medal.

Olympic rules require all but three players to be under 23, all three Barcelona prodigies comfortably met the age criteria.

Notably, Pau Cubarsi started the final at just 17 years, 6 months, and 18 days old, setting a new record as the youngest Spanish athlete to secure Olympic gold in football.

Fermin Lopez etched his name into the history books as well.

After a modest start with a single goal in the group stages, he exploded in the knockout rounds.

He netted a brace against Japan in the quarterfinals, contributed a goal and an assist against Morocco in the semifinals, and capped off his campaign with two goals in the final.

This prolific run culminated in six goals, making him Spain‘s all-time leading scorer at the Olympics.
