Spain settled the match early, with Oyarzabal converting in the 2nd minute from a P. Cubarsi assist. Pedri doubled the lead on 32 minutes, finishing from a F. Torres ball, to send Spain into half-time firmly in control. Peru's P. Gallese gifted Spain a third with an own goal on 53 minutes, effectively ending the contest. Peru pulled one back through J. Velez on 66 minutes, assisted by M. Lopez, but it was no more than a consolation. Spain's two-goal cushion at the break and the early third-half own goal meant Peru never had a realistic path back into the match.

As a friendly, the result carries no standings weight, but Spain will take meaningful form from a performance that was controlled from the opening whistle. Going ahead inside two minutes and doubling that lead before the break signals a settled, purposeful attacking unit — Oyarzabal and Pedri both finding the net before being rotated off at half-time and the hour mark respectively, suggesting Spain's coaching staff got the minutes they wanted from their first-choice players. Peru, despite a late consolation, were largely second-best throughout and conceded via their own goalkeeper in the second half before finding a response.
