Croatia stuns defending champion Spain to qualify for round of 16 in Euro Cup

In the Euro football cup, low ranked Croatia stunned the title holder Spain in a Group D match to qualify for the round of 16, last night. This is Spain's first defeat in a EURO cup in 12 years. Croatia's Ivan Perisic scored in dying minutes of the game that helped stun Spain 2-1. Earlier, Alvaro Morata had given an early lead to Spain but Croatia had equalised through Nikola Kalinic before the half time. The result means Spain finished second in Group D and will have to play Italy in the round of 16 on Monday at the Stade de France.
