Spain have set up a clash against the champions of the 2016 Olympic men’s football by beating the tournament hosts Japan 1-0 after extra time.
Marco Asensio scored the only goal of the game in extra time to set up a final meeting with Brazil at the International Yokohama Stadium this weekend.
La Roja were denied a penalty after a VAR review, but neither side really looked like breaking the deadlock in the first 90 minutes, and extra time was needed to find a victor.
Asensio ultimately proved to be the matchwinner in the 116th minute, picking the ball up just inside the box before curling a beautiful strike into the far corner of the net.
