Spain took the lead against Switzerland after pouncing on a shocking mistake from the defence. Merino picked off a pass and Oyarzabal finished it off. The connection formed at Real Sociedad made it 1-0.

It was a very strange moment for Spain. De Gea had just made an amazing save and put the ball back in play and then Switzerland were 1-0 down.

The pressure paid off an in an instant the Spaniards had punished an unfortunate Swiss mistake to make it 1-0.

Oyarzabal has already scored three goals for La Roja. Sociedad forward finished well to make it 1-0 against a Switzerland that gave the shock at the start, but he couldn't celebrate too much after the shocking mistake let him in for 1-0.

And the 'Txuri-Urdin' connection is in an eleven that excites Spaniards. Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres were alongside Oyarzabal, who made a key contribution to the confidence of the first half for Luis Enrique's team.
