Spain Just Too Good For Thais

August 25, 2012

BANGKOK (25 August 2012) – Former world champions Spain showed Thailand that they still have some work to do ahead of this year’s FIFA Futsal World Cup after chalking up easy 8-0 winners in the first of their two friendly match that was played last night at the Nimibutr Stadium.

The game which was arranged as part of the festivities for the official draw of the FIFA Futsal World Cup, was supposed to give Vic Hermans’ men the opportunity to measure up against one of the best Futsal teams in the world.

The next against Spain will be tomorrow evening in Nakhon Ratchasima.
