Spain edges past Albania and continues its winning streak in Euro 2024!

Four minutes given as added time.

Berisha given yellow card for elbowing a Spanish player.

Albania’s Broja was almost through on goal but Vivian handles the situation well for Spain and wins the ball!

Baena comes in for Olmo who has had a wonderful performance tonight.

Yamal wins the ball deep in the final third but he tried to pass it to Morata rather than taking a shot himself but the pass is intercepted.

Yamal skillfully plays it to Lopez at the edge of the box but as the number 25 tries to dribble into the box, the ball is stolen from him by the Albanian backline.

Lamine Yamal and Morata in for Ferran Torres and Joselu!

Broja gets the ball inside the Spanish box after a set-piece as he takes a shot on-target but is met by a breathtaking save by David Raya.

Oyarzabal makes way for Fermin Lopez!

Asllani plays a long ball for Asani but its intercepted. Asllani has arguably been the best player for Albania so far and is the most likely player to score for the Albanian side.

Grimaldo crossed the ball in for Joselu inside the box who fired an acrobatic first-time volley, just missing the target!

Spain kicked the second half off as it passes around the Albanian half with ease.

Spain is looking comfortable all around as Albania is doing well to build up an attack but is missing the edge needed in the final third to score against a side like Spain. Grimaldo and Olmo are especially playing good football for Spain!

Albania makes its first attempt on goal as Asllani takes a solid shot on target from the edge of the box, matched with a spectacular diving save by David Raya.

Grimaldo in the spotlight again as he makes a cut-back pass for Merino inside the box but his shot goes way over the post!

Jesus Navas crosses it powerfully and low to Dani Olmo inside the box from the right as Olmo brings it but his shot is blocked by Djimsiti of Albania.

Spain breaks into an attack after Manaj loses the ball for Alabania. Torres had the ball deep in the final third on the right as he crosses it in for Oyarzabal on the far post but puts way too much power into it.

As things stand in both the matches, Albania will be out of the competition!

Merino passes it to Oyarzabal on the left wing as he tries to slot a low driven cross into the box but it is deflected away for a corner.

Spain looks dominant on the ball, passing it around in Albania’s match. Olmo takes a shot from afar but way off target. Albania on the other hand has had its moments but is struggling to find the final pass that can lead to goal.

Dani Olmo threads a pass to Ferran Torres on the left wing as he makes a simple grounded finish in the bottom left corner to give Spain the lead!

Jesus Navas crosses it to Merino who heads it on goal from inside the box but saved by the keeper!

Jesus Navas crosses it in from the right wing deep in the feel towards the far post but the ball is cleared away by Albania’s defence.

Vivian wins the ball for Spain in the middle of the park as he passes it to Olmo but he loses the ball while carrying it towards the box.

Albania wins an early corner as Aslani crosses it in but cleared away by the Spanish backline.

Plenty of end-to-end football from the get go. Albania had an early chance after a cross was launched for Asani but cleared away. Spain too attacked from the left flank as Grimaldo slotted a cross into the box but cleared away.

Albania starts the game strong as it launches a long ball ahead hoping to get another early goal this time against leader Spain.

Spain has made ten changes compared to its starting 11 from the last match against Italy!
