Spain missed out on the chance to seal their last 16 place at the 2022 World Cup as Germany battled back to seal a 1-1 draw in Al Khor.
La Roja looked set to book their knockout spot against Hansi Flick’s side at the Al Bayt Stadium but the four time winners rallied in the final stages to grab a draw.
Substitute Alvaro Morata finally broke the deadlock on the night for Spain as he neatly finished off Jordi Alba’s cross on the hour mark.
