Lamine Yamal starts for Spain against England in Nations League group finale
Lamine Yamal has been named in Spain’s starting XI to face England at the Metropolitano on Sunday evening in the final match of the Nations League group stage.
Spain sit top of Group C with a perfect 15 points from their five matches, three points clear of runners-up England. Luis de la Fuente has recalled Yamal to the starting line-up after the forward missed Spain’s previous game against the Czech Republic because he was not fully fit.

Defenders: Marc Pubill, Pau Cubarsi, Aymeric Laporte, Marc Cucurella
Midfielders: Martin Zubimendi, Fabian Ruiz, Mikel Merino
Forwards: Lamine Yamal, Mikel Oyarzabal, Alex Baena
England manager Thomas Tuchel has also announced his line-up for the meeting with the group leaders.
Tuchel has selected a strong attacking unit as England attempt to beat Spain and move into first place in the group.
England’s team is:
Goalkeeper: James Trafford
Defenders: Jarell Quansah, Ezri Konsa, Ben White, Lewis Hall
Midfielders: Jude Bellingham, Elliot Anderson, Declan Rice
Forwards: Anthony Gordon, Morgan Rogers, Harry Kane
