Pedri, Rashford, Mount: Who's played the most games in 2020/21? | OneFootball

Spain's campaign at this year's Olympic Games in Tokyo kicked off on Thursday afternoon.

The European nation played Egypt in their first group game and the Euro 2020 semi-finalists had to settle for a 0-0 draw.

It was a slightly surprising result, as many expected Spain to win with ease due to amount of high-quality players in their squad.

Dani Olmo, Mikel Oyarzabal, Pau Torres, Eric Garcia, Mikel Merino, Marco Asensio, Dani Ceballos and Barcelona's teenage sensation Pedri all started the match against Egypt.

Pedri's appearance against Egypt was his 68th for club and country in 2020/21, which is an astonishing number of games for an 18-year-old.

The midfielder is now third on the list of players to have featured in the most matches this season and he has a chance of taking top spot outright if Spain perform well out in Tokyo.
