BRAGA: Alvaro Morata scored a late winner for Spain to see them pip hosts Portugal to top spot in their Nations League group and reach the finals. The Iberian neighbours are partners in a bid to win host rights to the 2030 World Cup.

The ex-Chelsea striker scored in the 88th minute from close range after Nico Williams headed the ball into his path.

Portugal only needed a point to advance and had chances to score but Liverpool’s Diogo Jota and Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo both missed.

Spain will be joined in June’s finals by Croatia, Italy and the Netherlands, who are expected to host all the games.
