David Villa struck a hat-trick as classy Spain got their Euro 2008 challenge off to a flying start against Russia at a rain-swept Stadion Tivoli Neu in Innsbruck.
Villa scored twice in the first half before netting his third 15 minutes from time, earning himself the match ball, the man-of-the-match award and making him an early front-runner for the tournament's leading scorer.
Roman Pavluchenko pulled a late goal back for Russia, but there was still time for Spain to net a fourth through Cesc Fabregas to wrap up a deserved win.
