Goal Rush Impact
Spain are a Tier 1 pick on the Goal Rush card at £32m within the game's £200m card budget, the premium top-band slot rather than a mid- or lower-tier call. The Group H draw against Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay sets the early fixture context, with de la Fuente's confirmed 4-3-3 and Spain's UEFA Group E qualifying run behind the team card.
Oyarzabal's part in that pick is direct goal threat. With 24 international goals behind him, he is one of the forwards who can turn the Tier 1 price into returns when he is on the pitch and finishing chances.
