Mariona wins Nations League title with Spain

Mariona Caldentey has won the UEFA Women's Nations League with Spain for the second time, after La Rojas thrashed Germany 3-0 to complete the defence of their title.

With the aggregate score level after a 0-0 draw in Germany, Spain made home advantage count in Madrid, with two goals from Claudia Pina either side of a strike from Vicky Lopez securing the trophy.

The opening hour was just as frustrating for Spain as the first leg had been, with Germany clinging on despite the hosts' free-flowing football.

But just after the hour mark, Mariona set up the opening goal for Pina, completing a one-two with the Barcelona forward who found the corner of the net from the edge of the penalty area.
