    Another Croatia attack and Andrej Kramaric takes aim but his shot is wide. It wouldn't have counted. The offside flag is up.

    Croatia are throwing everything at it. A long ball is pumped forward by Modric but up goes the offside flag. Croatia cannot believe it.

    I think there is another goal in this. The Spanish defence looks vulnerable.

    Spain look so shaky at the back, balls over the top are causing them such problems so don't write this Croatian side off. This is going to the last seconds.

    Spain have a throw-in deep inside Croatia's half. They're not rushing to take it.

    This game has just about had everything. Will we get a last-gasp equaliser?

    Goalline technology did its job there. Spain thought they had cleared it but it was clearly over the line.

    There's the noise from the fans I was asking for. Their team has given them something to cheer about. It's the genius Modric. They couldn't have made it any harder for themselves putting the ball in the back of the net. It's just over but it's over nontheless and they are back in this game, but there's not a lot of time left.

    They're back in it!

    Pinball inside the Spain penalty area and Mislav Orsic, who has only just come on, just about scrambles it over the line from close range.

    We've got a grandstand finish.

    France still have to get past Switzerland but Spain v France for a place in the semi-finals is a fabulous prospect.

    Croatia have gone for it and leave themselves open at the back. But you will not believe what I've just seen off the pitch there!

    Caleta-Car the centre half who is closes to Ferran Torres, was having a drink of water. As he's thrown the bottle off the pitch the ball has been played over to Ferran Torres and he's got no chance of getting back in.

    Duje Caleta-Car was having a sip of water when Torres galloped free to score after a quick-fire move. Incredible.

    That's a really good finish. Great touch across the defender and he sticks it in the corner. That's really good play. There was no pressure at all. That is it for me. Game done. There will be another chance for Croatia but I don't think it will be enough to get them back in the game.

    Croatia's Domagoj Vida had his head in his hands for that goal. It feels like they have left themselves too much to do now.

    They've just made some more changes but surely Spain have this in the bag.

    Ferran Torres

    Surely that's it!

    It is a wonderful piece of skill by Ferran Torres, who finishes calmly after shrugging off a defender to tuck it low past the keeper.

    The 21-year-old is having a wonderful tournament. That was a really classy finish.

    Another nervy moment for Unai Simon who struggles to control another backpass. He gets away with this one.

    Croatia have upped the tempo but Spain are getting bodies back and defending in numbers. Is there another twist in this? We're into the last 15.

    It is a dangerous score line this. Spain have been the better team but the Croatians have this switch that they can just turn things on when they want.

    Spain need that third goal because I can see the Croatians nicking something if they don't get one.

    Willem Mevius: Spain were slow to get up to speed in the tournament and in this match, but they look like they could go all the way now. Dominated every game, and great depth in their squad: every player on their bench would start for most of the other countries.
