Neither side created much in a tense game in North West London, as Athenea del Castillo and Irene Parades wasted a key chances before the break.

However, the one real chance came in added time as Real Madrid star Marta Cardona calmly nodded home to clinch the win for Spain.

La Roja will now face tournament favourites England in the quarter finals on July 20 in Brighton with the winners of that tie taking on either the top side in Group C or the runners up of Group D.
