Spain last conceded a goal in the 2022 World Cup, against Japan in the final group stage match. After a goalless draw against Morocco in the last 16 of that tournament, the Spaniards were eliminated in a penalty shootout. They have kept clean sheets in their first five matches of the tournament. Luis de la Fuente's team became the first team in World Cup history to keep six consecutive clean sheets. This time, that streak was broken. Spain took the lead against Belgium with a goal from Fabia Ruiz. De Ketler equalized before the break.
