England player ratings vs Spain: Surprise Arsenal star scores 8/10 as huge statement issued

Resumen detallado

Three Lions clung on for historic Nations League victory

England inflicted Spain’s first defeat in Madrid in 39 years as they won 3-2 at the Estadio Metropolitano.

Goals from Harry Kane and Arsenal duo Ezri Konsa and Ben White helped England top the group ahead of the world champions.

That was despite goals from Mikel Oyarzabal and Nico Williams that brought Spain back into the game - but England held on.

Made fine saves to deny Fermin Lopez, Lamine Yamal and from a shot that deflected off Ben White. And a remarkable double stoppage-time save helped the visitors over the line.

Brilliant. Scored the third goal and was defensively robust at the other end of the pitch on a rare international start.

Defensively very secure and popped up with a powerful downward header that doubled England’s lead.

Had done well until another poor error like the other night led to the penalty that threatened to allow Spain back into it.

Defended superbly against Yamal and was brave on the ball as he came away with the ball.

Performed very well in midfield with an energetic display but then got himself sent off when fouling Yamal as he went through, conceding a penalty.
