The UEFA Nations League has crowned Spain as the champions for the first time in its history, after they secured a thrilling 2-1 victory over Croatia in the final.
The match was played at Wembley Stadium in London on Sunday evening and saw both teams put up a fierce fight throughout. However, it was Spain who emerged victorious in the end, thanks to goals from Koke and Rodrigo.
The first half was a closely contested affair, with both sides creating chances but failing to find the back of the net. However, in the second half, things took a different turn for Spain. They began to dominate possession and create more scoring opportunities, eventually leading to their winning goal in the 74th minute.
Koke's goal came after a brilliant run down the right wing, finishing calmly into the bottom corner of the net. And then, in the 85th minute, Rodrigo scored his second goal of the tournament, putting the game beyond doubt.
It was a well-deserved win for Spain, who have now won all three of their matches in the Nations League this season. The victory also marks a historic moment for Spanish football, as they become only the fourth team to win the competition.
Overall, it was a fantastic display of football from both teams, with Spain showing great composure and skill to come out on top. It will be interesting to see how they perform in future tournaments, and whether they can continue their success in international competitions.
