Yamal on target as Spain hold off Czech Republic

Oviedo, Spain: Lamine Yamal's superb goal scoring continued as Spain claimed a 3-1 victory over the Czech Republic in the Nations League on Saturday. This triumph moved Spain three points ahead of England at the top of Group A3. The Czech Republic's World Champions had already secured a 7-0 win against Croatia earlier in Rijeka.

Spain took a two-goal lead early with goals from Yamal and Rodri Hernandez. However, Czech Republic's Jiri Slama equalized with 20 minutes left. Mikel Merino sealed the win late on, despite Ladislav Krejci's red card for the Czechs. This win marked Spain's 41st consecutive unbeaten game, including their World Cup final win over Argentina in July.

De la Fuente made several changes to the team, bringing on Ivan Fresneda and Roberto Fernandez. It was Yamal's 11th goal in his last eight games for his club and country.
