France defeat Spain in Nations League final

France won the Nations League final, coming from behind in a dramatic second half to defeat Spain 2-1.

Real Sociedad forward Mikel Oyarzabal opened the score in the 64th minute but two minutes later, Karim Benzema equalised with a stunning long-range strike.

The game was decided in the 80th minute when Kylian Mbappe converted a one-on-one with Unai Simon.

As a result, France become the second winner in the competition's short history after Portugal who won the inaugural edition back in 2019.

In the third-place play-off, hosts Italy defeated Belgium with the same scoreline 2-1.
