Ferran Torres surpasses the records with Spain of a legend From Real Madrid

Ferran netted the winning goal against Albania.

Ferran Torres Proves Himself As A Reliable Player With Spain

To the surprise of some, Ferran Torres was included in the preliminary list of 30 players selected by Luis de la Fuente for the Eurocopa of Germany and soon after secured his spot in the summer tournament. The FC Barcelona forward, however, has not been able to earn a spot in the starting lineup where Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams are grabbing all the attention on the wings. Nevertheless, Torres still managed to score his first goal in the competition.

Ferran scored a significant goal with his left hand to lead Spain to victory against Albania on Monday in Düsseldorf. This goal helped him reach 20 goals for the national team, tying the legendary Telmo Zarra. In his first opportunity during the Euros, he did not miss his chance to score. In just 43 games, he has already achieved this impressive record.

Ferran Continues To Demonstrate His Scoring Prowess With Spain

In this way, Ferran has managed to outperform Raúl González in this record, noting that the former captain of Real Madrid needed 45 games to reach 20 goals. Thus, Ferran continues to make his mark in the history books of Spanish goal scorers, knowing that he will eventually break into the top 10 historic ranks. Currently, he has matched the 13th position, with his 24th birthday celebrated in February.

Ferran Gets Another Eurocopa Chance

The Barcelona forward will now have at least one more game in the Eurocup to continue chasing Raúl's record. Raúl is still the player who scored 25 goals the fastest with Spain. With both mentioned wingers on the team, Ferran knows it will be difficult to get playing time in the knockout stages. However, his great goal-scoring instinct for Spain makes him a viable option at any time, even as a striker.
