CROATIA 3 v SPAIN 2 Croatia gained a dramatic late winner to beat Spain in the Nations League - a result which keeps alive England's hopes of winning the tournament. An absolutely fantastic game. Good goals, good saves, Ramos villain and hero, 93rd minute winner. Modric and Rakitic the architects of defeat for the nation that pays their wages.

HOW THE MIGHTY HAVE FALLEN
Ex-Manchester United boss José Mourinho has agreed a prison term in Spain for tax fraud but will not go to jail.
A one-year prison sentence will instead be exchanged for a fine of €182,500 (£160,160). That will be added to a separate fine of €2m.
Spain rarely enforces sentences of less than two years for non-violent or first-time offenders.
He was accused of owing €3.3m to Spanish tax authorities from his time managing Real Madrid in 2011-2012.
Prosecutors said he created multiple business entities in the British Virgin Islands and elsewhere to manage his image rights.

Sevilla bosses seem to be jinxed.
Remember last season that Eduardo Berizzo was diagnosed with prostate cancer in November 2017, and sacked a month later after returning from surgery. (He is now the Paraguay manager, by the way.)
Well, the current Sevilla manager Joaquin Caparros has now revealed he has chronic leukaemia but will stay in the job.
The 63-year-old made the announcement after a 2-0 win at Real Valladolid boosted their Champions League hopes.

NAUGHTY BOY
Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa has been banned for eight games after being found guilty of abusing a referee.
The former Chelsea player, 30, was sent off by official Jesus Gil Manzano during Atletico's 2-0 loss to Barcelona in La Liga.
Manzano said in his match report that the Spanish international had "insulted his mother", a claim Costa denied.
The Spanish Football Federation's ban rules him out of Atletico's remaining La Liga fixtures this season.
Costa, who can appeal against the ban, received a four game suspension for insults to the referee and a further four for grabbing the official's arm
