In his place, if anything, logic pointed to the entry of <strong>Dani Olmo<\/strong>.<\/p>  <p>But De la Fuente preferred to bet on <strong>an Isco who only contributed a distant shot<\/strong> that Diogo Costa sent to the corner during the 45 minutes he was on the field. The Betis player, however, did his job by scoring his penalty.<\/p>  <p>In extra time, the first changes were Mingueza for Pedro Porro (a change that was expected, as the former cul\u00e9 player had a rather poor match) and <strong>Nico Williams for \u00c1lex Baena<\/strong>. The latter was one of the most discussed changes, as the player from La Rioja had <strong>Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez<\/strong> available to give greater depth to the Spanish attack.<\/p>  <p>Afterwards, <strong>Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal would come on for Yeremy Pino and \u00c1lvaro Morata<\/strong>. The &#8216;7&#8217; missed the decisive penalty in the shootout, while Gavi, a more sensible bet for the midfield, remained on the bench alongside Olmo.
