Spain manager Luis de la Fuente praised his team's control after a 3-2 victory over England at Wembley on Saturday. Lamine Yamal opened the scoring after just two minutes, but Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane gave England a 2-1 halftime lead. Spain equalized through Álex Baena after Harry Kane missed a 54th-minute penalty, and Mikel Oyarzabal secured the win in the 74th minute.

The result extends Spain's unbeaten run to 39 matches, covering their reign as European and world champions. De la Fuente noted England only had a brief spell of control, stating his side remained in command for most of the contest. Ferran Torres started up front but missed key opportunities, though the manager praised his attitude.

Lamine Yamal was highlighted as an exceptional talent who adapts to every moment. Eric García was a late withdrawal due to injury, though De la Fuente assessed it as not serious. Overall, Spain's depth and resilience were key factors in overcoming the "superpower" England side.
