England produced a stunning performance in Madrid to defeat world champions Spain 3-2 in a Nations League thriller. Despite being reduced to ten men in the second half, Thomas Tuchel's side held firm to secure a memorable victory at the Metropolitano Stadium.

The Three Lions took an early lead through Harry Kane, who converted a penalty after being fouled in the box. Ezri Konsa doubled the advantage shortly after the break with a powerful header from a Declan Rice corner, before Ben White added a third with a clinical finish.

Spain mounted a late comeback as Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal found the net to set up a tense finale. However, England's defence, marshalled by goalkeeper James Trafford, withstood the pressure to claim all three points and top their Nations League group.
