Spain Edge France in Thrilling 5-4 Shootout: What This Dramatic Win Means for the Nations League Final and Beyond
France pulled one back shortly afterwards, as Mbappe outwitted Porro inside the box and forced the Tottenham Hotspur right-back to pull him from behind, and then promptly went to ground. The referee was decisive again as he blew the whistle to award the penalty, which Mbappe himself converted. Had Doue managed to score with his curled effort in the 62nd minute, who knows what might have unfolded afterwards, but the shot went wide and Spain were off the hook.
De la Fuente’s men punished their opponents swiftly, as a fine Zubimendi’s pass was flicked on into the box by Porro for Yamal to score his second and Spain’s fifth on the evening.
