Super-sub Merino sends Portugal & Ronaldo packing
Mikel Merino scored a late winner as Spain edged Portugal, 1-0, in a drab World Cup round of 16 clash. The Arsenal midfielder was introduced in the 85th minute, and won the game in the 91st with a tidy finish that was just about deserved. La Roja were ineffective for long stretches, and created admittedly little. But Merino proved the unlikely difference-maker.
