PHOTO:Croatia 2 Spain 1: Ivan Perisic shines on an evening to forget for Sergio Ramos

Croatia snatched Group D top spot as Ivan Perisic bagged a late winner against Spain.
Ante Cacic’s much-changed side fought back from a goal behind to earn a 2-1 victory over Vicente Del Bosque’s men to reach the last-16.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United target Alvaro Morata stabbed home a Cesc Fabregas cross after a sumptuous reverse ball from David Silva to give Spain the lead early on and for large periods of the first half, the Spaniards looked comfortable.
But former Blackburn Rovers striker Nikola Kalinic scored a delightful flick from a cross from Perisic right on half time.


Sergio Ramos had the opportunity to win it deep into the second period but his penalty was saved by Danijel Subasic.
And he was left to rue his mistake as Kalinic slid Perisic in who duly fired past Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea.
Spain will now face Antonio Conte’s Italy in the last-16 in what is set to be a cracking match!
