Spain clinched a spot in the 2023 UEFA Nations League finals Tuesday as Alvaro Morata scored a late winner against Portugal.

Spain broke the deadlock in the Portuguese city of Braga in the 88th minute.

Dani Carvajal crossed to the far post to find Nico Williams.

Williams nodded the ball to the center as an unmarked Morata made an easy finish from close range.
