Ukraine 0-1 Spain LIVE Score, FIFA U20 World Cup 2025: Garcia Gives La Rojita Lead Against Unbeaten Opponents

Spain have been utterly dominant in the last ten minutes or so, and the relentless pressure on Krapyvtsov's goal bears fruit. It all comses from a short corner, and Pitarch finds Mendoza. The midfielder lobs it past the defenders to find Pablo Garcia on the right edge of the box, and his powerful shot beats the reach of the goalkeeper to find the back of the net.

Despite Spain having more than 80% of the ball, Ukraine's pace is causing some trouble to their backline. Cuenca hacks down the onrsuhing Ponomarenko to prevent him from getting free, and earns the first yellow of the night.

It has been quite an attacking start from both sides, with Ukraine willing to throw caution to the wind when pushing forward. Krevsun had the first shot from a 30-yard free-kick, but it went high and wide. Karaman's long range effort minutes later is much better, stinging the palms of Fran, who makes a routine stop.

Referee Jalal Jayed blows his whislte, and Spain get today's match underway in a sunny day out in Valparaiso. Despite the terrific form by Ukraine of late - unbeaten in 10 matches - the Spaniards have started strongly.
