Croatia vs Spain LIVE! Nations League final result, match stream and latest updates today

Spain beat Croatia 5-4 in a penalty shootout to win their first title in a decade as they secured the Nations League on Sunday.

The final at De Kuip ended goalless after extra time, leaving the trophy to be settled on spot kicks with Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon emerging as the hero. He saved Croatia's fourth kick from Lovro Majer giving Spain's Aymeric Laporte the chance to win the shootout but he hammered the ball against the bar.

Simon then saved again from Bruno Petkovic to hand Spain a second chance to win, which Dani Carvajal took with a chipped finish. Spain's last title was the 2012 Euros and the Nations League will help make up for a disappointing World Cup last year where they went out to Morocco in the last-16.
