All Spain now as teenager Gavi collects the ball on the edge of the area and tries to pass it into the corner.
He drags his shot wide, but only just. Keeper didn't have a chance.
Croatia 0-0 Spain
Oooh! Chance for Spain.
PSG's Fabian Ruiz whips in a very routine cross but Croatian keeper Dominik Livakovic make a right meal of it, spilling the ball on to the post.
It's about to trickle into the path of Alvaro Morata for a tap-in, but Livakovic manages to get their first, diving to palm the ball away.
Morata would have been offside on reflection.
Croatia 0-0 Spain
Spain are being loudly jeered every time they make a pass. The Croatia fans are entertaining themselves. It's been a slow start since Jordi Alba's early shot.

Back to the action and an aggressive Croatia press has Spain keeper Unai Simon panicking. His clearance is poor but Croatia can't do much with it.

In the build-up I called Ivan Perisic a midfielder. He's actually playing left back tonight.
Might be a record for live-text errors. Seventeen minutes before kick-off.

Croatia v Spain (19:45 BST)
Manchester City and Spain midfielder Rodri could win a fourth trophy of a stellar campaign tonight.
"It’s been a demanding, long, season and sometimes I wasn't sure how I'd get to this point at the end, with a World Cup in the middle, but this final is important and I want to crown an exceptional season by winning it," he said.
Rodri is already a Treble winner with Man City, winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.
"Winning with the national team is vital. It would be great and that's all I work for.
"If people consider I'm worth individual trophies then great but there are a lot of top players around the world and I really don’t concentrate on that issue.
"I don’t know if we are the best two sides but football gives you want you deserve"
Alvaro Morata's 88th minute winner saw Spain top their Nations League group at the expense of opponents Portugal all the way back in Spetmber.
And in their semi-final with Italy Spain left it late again.
Yeremy Pino's opener was cancelled out by Ciro Immobile in the first half.
But with two minutes remaining of normal time substitute Joselu pounced from close range after Rodri's deflected shot to send Spain to tonight's Rotterdam final.
And we're up to date. I told you it would be quick!
Listen, it's still quite a new competition but victory would be huge for both nations.
Spain haven't won a title since 2012. Croatia are still chasing their first major trophy.
FT: Spain 1-2 France
Two years ago Kylian Mbappe fired a contentious winner as France came from behind to beat Spain and become the second team to win the Nations League.
Mbappe was adjudged to be onside when he slid the ball under Unai Simon after Karim Benzema's stunning equaliser at Milan's San Siro.
Spain had taken the lead through Mikel Oyarzabal, who shrugged off defender Dayot Upamecano to beat Hugo Lloris.
Lloris produced two late saves to ensure victory for the world champions.
FT: Portugal 1-0 Netherlands
Back in 2019 hosts Portugal claimed their second trophy in three years by beating the Netherlands to win the inaugural Nations League.
Fernando Santos' side had also triumphed at the 2016 European Championship and Goncalo Guedes' second half strike gave them a narrow victory in Porto which Santos said was evidence of their unity as a team.
England finished third in the tournament after a victory on penalties over Switzerland in Guimaraes.
