Spain Edge France in Thrilling 5-4 Shootout: What This Dramatic Win Means for the Nations League Final and Beyond
Brief recap
France almost took the lead in the sixth minute when Dembele won the ball in the opposition half, burst forward and employed Mbappe inside the box, but Simon rushed out to make a fine save. Hernandez also came close six minutes later, but his effort from the edge of the box grazed the woodwork and went out.
Spain took nearly a quarter of the match to respond, but when they did, they made it count. Yamal did some fine work on the right and passed to Oyarzabal, who set up Williams for a powerful finish under the bar. Oyarzabal got himself another assist two minutes later, receiving the ball from Merino before setting up the Arsenal midfielder for another well-taken goal.
