WATCH: Rayan Cherki scores stunning goal to reduce the arrears for France against Spain

Spain almost certainly continues to the UEFA Nations League final, but they have admitted a second goal to France in their semi-final collision in Stuttgart.

It has been a ruthless performance from Spain. At 22 minutes they took the lead thanks to Nico Williams, with the Athletic Club wing player the ball past France -goalkeeper Mike Maignan hit after a good game by Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal. And four minutes later, La Roja doubled their advantage thanks to Arsenal -midfielder Mikel Merino.

It stayed so rest and minutes in the second half the game seemed to be brought to bed like a game. Lamine Yamal was polluted by Adrien Rabiot in the penalty area and the 17-year-old stepped up to score from 12 Yards. And two minutes later, Barcelona teammate Pedri added the fourth of the evening of Spain.

France scored its own goal on the hour thanks to Kylian Mbappe, but shortly thereafter Spain recovered their lead from four goals and it was Lamine Yamal that doubled for La Roja. But Les Bleus has now made it 5-2, with Rayan Cherki who scored an excellent purpose.
