Spain beat Netherlands to top Group B
Defending champions Spain made it three wins out of three in Israel as they beat the Netherlands 3-0 to secure first place in Group B and set up a semi-final meeting with Norway.
Julen Lopetegui's men had struck late winners in their two previous fixtures but this time they took a grip on the game early at a lively Ha Moshava Stadium, with Álvaro Morata – scoring for the third game running – and Isco putting them two goals in front inside 32 minutes, before Álvaro Vázquez added a late third. For the Netherlands, who featured a completely changed lineup from Sunday's win against Russia, the defeat means they will now face Group A winners Italy in the last four on Saturday.

The simplest of tap-ins at the back post for substitute Álvaro Vázquez after a neat cross-goal pass. Not for the first time today, Spain punish Netherlands' profligacy emphatically. - 90Fer (Netherlands) is cautioned by the referee.

A classy, clinical Spain side eased past the Netherlands here to take pole position in the section and set up a last four meeting with Norway. The Dutch had their chances but profligacy - or rather, the reflexes of David De Gea - proved their undoing.
