SPAIN 1 GERMANY 0 | U-21 EURO CHAMPIONSHIP GROUP RESULT

Excellent match & a great victory for the Spanish Football U-21 National Team 0 - 1 over Germany in their second Group game. Important victory that puts Spain in equal top position with Holland,  & both will play mid-week to settle the Group.

A deserved victory as Spain played much better than Germany which was on the back-foot  most of the game. Spain hit the post via Thiago in the first half & the Germans managed to stay sticky, rugged & defended well to keep things even.

The second half Spain took things over & created multiple chances but were unlucky not to finish things off. Again history repeated itself for Spain with young Morata coming on to substitute Rodrigo around the 70th min mark did his magic. It was Morata in a brilliant piece of individual play down the wing & into the goal square scored in the 86th min to put Spain ahead & give the eventual winner. Something that Morata did against Russia & towards the end of that game as well. 

Summarizing, Spain look good & have an outstanding midfield with Thiago & Isco doing magic & look very solid in defence with Barça experienced players Bartha & Montoya looking fine. In fact , all the U-21 Spanish players are looking good & have a good chance of continuing their advance in the Euro Championships. Next match Holland.
