UEFA Nations League: Ansu Fati becomes Spain's youngest goal-scorer in win over Ukraine; Switzerland draws with Germany

Firstpost  

Barcelona forward Fati put Spain three goals ahead after just 31 minutes of the League A, Group 4 clash at the empty Alfredo di Stefano Stadium in Madrid with a fine individual strike that came amid a scintillating debut start for his adopted country. Paris, France: Ansu Fati announced his arrival in international football on Sunday after becoming the youngest goalscorer in the history of the Spanish national team in a 4-0 thumping of Ukraine that put them top their UEFA Nations League group. Fati’s strike – a super curling shot after fine footwork on the edge of area – came just three minutes after Ramos had put Spain two up with a beautiful looping header from Dani Olmo’s cross. The easy win leaves Spain top of Group 4 on four points, one ahead of Sunday’s opponents but more importantly two in front of Germany who were held to a second consecutive 1-1 draw, this time with Switzerland.
