World Cup winner Spain survives scare to beat England 3-2 in Nations League

LONDON: (Sep 27)  World Cup winner Spain extended its unbeaten run to 39 games by rallying to a 3-2 win against England in the Nations League.

Substitute Mikel Oyarzabal came back to haunt England with his 74th-minute winner at Wembley.

Oyarzabal also scored the winning goal when Spain beat England in the final of the European Championship in 2024. On this occasion he calmly chipped goalkeeper James Trafford from close range to complete the world champion’s comeback after trailing 2-1 at halftime.
