Spain equalized in the form of Diego Costa who showed brilliant dribbling skills followed by a stunning finish. The Spanish side looked belligerent with frequent attacks until a costly blunder by De Gea. Loris Karius would have connected well with this attempt. Many Liverpool fans would have enjoyed this moment as Sergio Ramos was on the receiving end this time around. Half time score read Portugal 2-1 Spain.
Diego Costa equalized once again and Nacho followed in with a spectacular bullet finish making it 3-2 for Spain. They were leading for the first time in the game and looked well placed to clinch 3 crucial points.
