Scotland fans pack Munich bar ahead of Euros opener against hosts Germany

Spain got their Euro 2024 campaign underway with a 3-0 win on Saturday, as they beat one of the 2022 World Cup semi-finalists in Croatia.

Luis de la Fuente has plenty of tremendous attacking options in his squad, and 16-year-old Lamine Yamal was one of those who shone in the Group B opener.

The Barcelona winger assisted Dani Carvajal for 3-0, after captain Alvaro Morata opened the scoring and Fabian Ruiz doubled the lead.

Croatia thought they had pulled one back late on, when Bruno Petkovic won a penalty and scored in the aftermath after hitting the post. However, encroachment meant the goal was chalked off, ensuring a Spanish clean sheet.

Re-live all the action from Spain vs Croatia below plus build-up to the other Group B game, Italy vs Albania:

What a chance! Hungary should be level, a curling cross from the left and Orban wriggles free.

He doesn’t adjust his body in time and then reaches low with his neck to head towards goal. No power or direction added from the delivery and that’s easy for Sommer.

What a chance! Sallai had time and space, but he blasts over!

It was fine work down the right from Fiola, excellent start from Hungary: fast, aggressive and sprinkling in quality at times.

Now Switzerland able to settle, passing it from side to side at the back, Xhaka dropping in to dictate.
