England (4-3-3)
Hannah Hampton Two superb stops in either half. Commanding aerially. And then two big penalty saves. 9
Lucy Bronze At fault for Mariona Caldentey’s opener but influential when moving into the midfield. Led the defence well. 7
Leah Williamson England’s last line of defence on occasions. Clean tackles. Didn’t give away a foul in 90 minutes. Passing exemplary. 8
Jess Carter Given the nod ahead of Esme Morgan and repaid her manager’s faith in her. Defended well on the floor and in the air. 7
Alex Greenwood Undone in the buildup to Spain’s opener but generally solid. Dealt well with Athenea del Castillo’s direct running. 7
Keira Walsh Took a while to get into things but contained Aitana Bonmatí well. Started to find space as the game progressed. Began move for England’s equaliser. 7
Georgia Stanway Best game in an England shirt since her injury. Tenacious in the challenge. Never stopped running. Instrumental in the equaliser. 8
Ella Toone Couldn’t influence the game creatively but tireless in her marshalling of Patri Guijarro in the middle. 6
Lauren James It was always a gamble to play her. Forced off with her recurring ankle injury early on. 6
Alessia Russo Never stopped running and pressing. Eventually got her reward by scoring the equaliser with a well taken near-post header. 8
Lauren Hemp Unusually played on the right. Helped cover that side defensively as well as being a constant outlet with her pace. 7
Substitutes: Chloe Kelly Direct running caused problems for Ona Batlle – trademark pinpoint cross for Russo’s leveller and a superb penalty to win it for England; 8. Michelle Agyemang Didn’t get the service in the box but added aerial threat and defensive protection; 6. Beth Mead Brought on for the tiring Toone in the 10 role and added energy, but missed her penalty; 6. Niamh Charles Late cameo. Alert in the box. Scored in shootout; 6. Grace Clinton Replaced the tiring legs of Stanway with youthful energy; 6.
Spain (4-3-3)
Cata Coll Commanding in between the posts. Very alert near-post save to keep out Hemp’s angled shot. 7
Ona Batlle Her pace caused England problems. Smart run in the box to assist opener. Struggled with Kelly. 7
Irene Paredes Generally solid and led by example. Failed to defend the cross at the near post that led to the equaliser. 7
Laia Aleixandri Allowed Russo to float in between her and Paredes for the equaliser. Marshalled the defence well. 6
Olga Carmona Caused Bronze and Hemp a headache, particularly in the first half. Dangerous deliveries. Faded in the second. 7
Aitana Bonmatí Magic feet to open up England in the buildup for Caldentey’s goal. At the heart of many Spain attacks. 8
Patri Guijarro Kept quiet by Toone in midfield. Strong in her duels but could not get her trademark passing game going. 7
Alexia Putellas A little off colour. Didn’t have her normal influence when Spain advanced. Put out on the left in the second. 6
Athenea del Castillo Livewire on the right for Spain. Tricky feet bamboozled England’s defence at times. Instrumental in the opener. 7
Esther González Couple of early chances and denied by Hampton early on. Little service in the second half. 6
Mariona Caldentey The creative cog in Spain’s wheel. Thunderous header. Her intelligent forward play was a threat throughout. 8
Substitutes: Clàudia Pina Bright in her cameo, forced Hampton into a top save; 7. Vicky López Influential cameo late on – fired over with seconds left in normal time; 6. Salma Paralluelo Added pace to Spain’s attack; 6. Leila Ouahabi Brought on late for tiring Carmona; 6.
