England's start was rewarded by Gordon and Kane, whose goals gave the hosts the lead. Reports from Wembley described a contest in which Thomas Tuchel's side enjoyed periods of dominance, yet Spain's response was ruthless. Marc Guehi and Nico O'Reilly were punished for basic errors as Spain scored its first two goals.
That swing made Kane's penalty a turning point. He missed from the spot, with the effort hitting the bar, and England could not turn its pressure into another goal. Match reports credited Lamine Yamal, Alex Baena and Mikel Oyarzabal with Spain's three goals, completing the visitors' comeback.
The highlights were the lead changing hands, the penalty miss and Spain's clinical finishing. The key stats are straightforward: five goals, three for Spain and two for England, with the score decided by one goal. In summary, England's attacking threat was not enough to overcome costly defensive errors, while Spain took its chances to claim the result at Wembley.
