Barcelona midfielder Gavi makes history with Spain goal

Barcelona midfielder Gavi made history with Spain in yesterday's 2-2 draw with the Czech Republic in the Nations League.

The Czech Republic's opening strike was the fastest conceded by Luis Enrique's side in his 39 matches at the helm.

However for La Roja, they managed to battle back thanks to an historic Gavi goal before the stroke of half time, who at 17 years and 304 days, became Spain's youngster ever goalscorer.

The previous record holder was Barca teammate Ansu Fati, who scored against Ukraine in Valdebebas at 17 years and 311 days.
