Alcacer: Scoring first Spain goal is wonderful

Paco Alcacerwas quick to express his delight after scoring his first goal for Spainin the 5-1 win over Macedoniaon Monday.
The Valencia striker found the net in the 17th minute of the Euro 2016 qualifier, firing into an empty goal from Juanfran's cut-back, doubling Spain's advantage after Sergio Ramos had opened the scoring from the penalty spot.
Macedonia pulled one back thanks to an Agim Ibraimi spot-kick, but Sergio Busquets' first goal for Spain and further strikes from the outstanding David Silva and Barcelona forward Pedro made it an easy victory for the reigning European champions.
And Alcacer, who dedicated the goal to his late father, revealed that his strike was made even more enjoyable by the fact it came in the city of his birth.
"I am very happy with the game. To play here on Levante's pitch in Valencia, my home, and to top it with a goal and a victory, is wonderful," the 21-year-old toldTVE.
"This team has a lot of quality and it was only a matter of time before a big win was recorded with good play and goals. There are players with a lot of quality and that has been demonstrated.
"Of course this is for my father. I remember him every day. He's always with me and I dedicate this important goal."
