In the 73rd minute, England equalized the match with a goal by Cole Palmer. Cole Palmer, who met the ball as a result of a three-way passing sequence between Bukayo Saka, Jude Bellingham, and Cole Palmer, managed to send the ball into the corner of the net to the right of Unai Simon with a hard and precise shot from outside the penalty area.
England, which brought balance to the match, found morale with this goal, but Spain did not give up.
