Second-half substitutes Alvaro Morata and Niclas Fullkrug made the most of their opportunity, scoring a goal each for Spain and Germany respectively in a thrilling 1-1 drawn encounter witnessed by a crowd of 68,895 at the Al Bayt Stadium on Sunday night.

Despite Spain enjoying a lion’s share of the possession and initially dominating the affair with some slick first-time passing, the Germans did well to do what they do best—fighting back in the nick of time—to keep themselves alive in the competition.
