Barcelona striker Ferran Torres: Spain refused to relax against Costa Rica - goal difference important

Barcelona striker Ferran Torres was delighted with his brace in Spain's win against Costa Rica.

Spain opened their World Cup campaign with a thumping 7-0 win on Wednesday.

Torres said: "Very happy. We knew it was going to be a difficult game. At halftime we were already going with a bulky result, but we have gone for more because such a competition can be decided by goals.

"We try to play from minute 1 to 90 our way and take the game where we want.

"Now we are going to see the videos from Germany, we will try to take the game where we want. I don't know if we are candidates, but we want to do great things."
