Azpilicueta solid in defence as excellent Spain sweep aside Costa Rica 7-0

Cesar Azpilicueta was tremendous for Spain earlier in the day helping La Roja sweep aside Costa Rica 7-0.

Spain's performance is now being considered the best performance of the World Cup so far.

Chelsea captain Azpilicueta made three key passes, one interception and 113 touches in one of the better performances from the veteran.

Azpilicueta was a surprise starter ahead of Dani Carvajal in the game but he certainly held his own.
