Match overview
Georgia’s dream start via Le Normand’s own goal stirred Spain, who levelled before half-time through Rodri. A commanding second-half display saw Fabián Ruiz head home, Williams curl in superbly and substitute Olmo add gloss as La Roja marched into the last eight with emphatic style and four different scorers.
Trivia
Yamal, aged 17, became the youngest player to start a Euro knockout match, while Nico Williams scored and assisted in the same game, the first Spaniard to do so since Cesc Fàbregas in 2012. Georgia exited having scored in every fixture of their debut tournament.
