Overview
- Spain closed their final warm‑ups with a 3-1 victory over Peru on June 9 that reinforced their status among tournament favourites.
- Mikel Oyarzabal opened the scoring and extended his run to six consecutive international matches, contributing to Spain's attacking momentum.
- Coach Luis de la Fuente said injured players are progressing and he expects them to be available for the opener but that playing time will be carefully assessed.
- FC Barcelona has publicly pushed for a cautious return for Lamine Yamal after his April 22 hamstring (biceps femoris) injury and notes a raised relapse risk from an accelerated comeback.
- A limited-sourced report from SPORT says Spain plans a 15–20 minute substitute debut for Yamal on June 15, a claim that remains unconfirmed and could shape Spain's tactics and Barcelona's medical concerns if verified.
