Spain 3-0 Austria: the goals that ate the memes in the 2026 World Cup

Spain destroyed Austria 3-0 in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup, with goals from Pedro Porro and a double from Mikel Oyarzábal, but the match was defined both on the field and on Twitter, where memes about goalkeeper Alexander Schlager overshadowed the tactical performance. The scoreboard reflects the domination of La Furia, which has recorded its 16th undefeated match in official competitions under the direction of Luis de la Fuente. Porro opened the scoring and Oyarzábal sealed the match, but the statistics do not tell the whole story: Austrian goalkeeper Schlager made a series of heroic saves that, despite the defeat, earned him the nickname "the thousand hands" on social media.
