Without seeing the game yet, try muskets and hussars (if he ffs) or double rax xbows/pikes if he tries to rush you.

you had a great advantage early game but you let him boom without scouing or putting pressure on.

why did you resign anyway? I think you would win that game

One mistake not to make is to go xbows. Spain will beat them if they have decent micro at all, early on dogs will put your few xbows into melee and muskets, properly micro'd, will kill your crossbows easily.

You're better off being somewhat defensive and going for muskets and then hussars later.

Musks / rods / dogs >> xbow / pike.

Just ask Shizle, I demonstrated this for him a couple days ago. :-P
