Match overview
Spain edged Yugoslavia in a tense encounter in Valencia. Zamora gave the hosts an early lead, but Petrović equalised with a fine finish. The turning point came when Spain were awarded a controversial penalty, which Juanito converted to secure the win. Yugoslavia pressed for an equaliser, but Spain held firm to claim three crucial points in front of a passionate home crowd.
Trivia
The penalty awarded to Spain was hotly debated, as the foul appeared to occur outside the area. The win was vital for Spain’s hopes of advancing from the group on home soil. Zamora’s goal was his first for Spain in a World Cup finals.
