Match Recap

Lamine Yamal made this one his personal show. The 18-year-old opened the scoring inside two minutes and struck again after the break, sandwiching a Marc Pubill goal as Spain tore Croatia apart in the UEFA Nations League. Croatia briefly threatened parity through Dion Drena Beljo just before the half-hour, but Spain's response was ruthless, and Nico Williams put a bow on the rout with a 89th-minute finish to make it 4-1. Both sides arrived unbeaten from their opening fixtures, Spain sitting top on goal difference just above Croatia, and Yamal's brace pushes him further clear as the league's outright top scorer with three goals. This was one-sided from the moment Yamal struck, a five-goal afternoon that swung entirely Spain's way after Croatia's brief reply. Barcelona's teenage forward is now doing this at international level too, and the highlights show exactly why defenders can't get near him. Watch his second goal, a finish that turned a nervy scoreline into a demolition.
