Pedro Carlos Martín, Sergi Barón, Genis Quiroga, Daniel Sánchez and Jorge Santonja gave Spain another victory in the Rotterdam Ahoy pavilion, extending their good performance this week. Having finished second in Group A the day before (behind France), the Spanish team faced Italy, third in Group B.
