Lamine Yamal scored twice and set up another as Spain beat Croatia 4-1 on Tuesday in the Nations League.
Yamal opened the scoring in just 75 seconds, before Dion Beljo’s (28th min) header restored parity. Two minutes later, the hosts reclaimed the lead as Marc Pubill headed in from Yamal’s cross.
Yamal (63rd) netted again by beating the goalkeeper at his near post. Nico Williams (89th) then added a fourth for Spain with a crisp dribble and finish.
“We’ve enjoyed Yamal’s magic in the service of the team. In the future, he’ll be much more recognised for what he does and for his contribution to the team’s play,” Spain coach Luis de la Fuente told Teledeporte.
