Merino’s Heroics Send Spain to Semis | Global News
Description
Mikel Merino just turned heads again—scoring the winner against Belgium in the 88th minute to send Spain to the semifinals, just days after his game-winning goal against Portugal. Calling it a lucky coincidence, Merino credits his readiness and alertness, proving himself as Spain’s clutch super-sub. His two goals in the tournament are now historic, and his late strike ended Belgium’s 18-game unbeaten run while also marking Spain’s first goal conceded in the World Cup. With France looming in the semifinals, Spain’s coach remains confident despite facing football’s giants.
