Pedri and Dani Olmo have been instrumental in Spain's recent victories.
On 18 Jun, Spain beat Saudi Arabia 4-0 with Olmo starting the match.

What happened?

Olmo's presence is indispensable, acting as a false nine and a second playmaker alongside Pedri.
He provides support and a focal point, and when he is on the pitch, the Selección's play takes on a whole new dimension.

Why it matters for Pedri

Pedri can find an unlikely passing lane with Olmo on the pitch.
Luis de la Fuente's team has a strong backbone with Pau Cubarsi, Pedri, Olmo, and Lamine Yamal.

What comes next?

Olmo's statistics are impressive, completing 17 out of 18 passes in the final third against Saudi Arabia.
He also scored three of his four goals with Mikel Oyarzabal when they played together.

Olmo is often substituted when the result is secured, which may be a way of protecting a key player.
Against Austria, he completed 13 out of 13 passes in the final third, including five forward passes.

The mobility of Olmo and Oyarzabal, combined with Alex Baena's ability to drift inside, facilitates runs into space.
Rodri can also use his shot to try his luck from distance with Pedri's support.

Pedri and Olmo's partnership is built on well-rehearsed moves that allow them to exploit gaps in the opposition's defence.
Their team's victories over Saudi Arabia and Austria demonstrate the importance of Olmo's presence on the pitch.
