Dani Carvajal 8/10
Scored in Champions League final for Real Madrid and made it 3-0 here with first-time close-range finish from perfect Yamal cross for his first goal in 45th game for Spain. A calm presence in defence.Show more
Robin Le Normand 7/10
Real Sociedad defender will have tougher days at the office than dealing with Croatia’s toothless forward line. AFP
Nacho 7/10
Real Madrid veteran was rarely troubled with Spain coasting to victory and there will be far bigger tests to come for this defence. AP
Marc Cucurella 7/10
Chelsea left-back bombed forward regularly, which other teams will look to exploit as tournament progresses. Threw himself at Stanisic’s shot in second half to stop Croatia pulling goal back. EPA
Fabian Ruiz 8/10
PSG midfielder supplied lovely through-ball for Morata’s goal, then produced lovely skill and quick feet before firing low shot home for the second. EPA
Rodri 8/10
Fulcrum of this Spanish team who does not waste a pass and provides immaculate cover in front of defence. As reliable and consistent for his country as he is for club side Manchester City. Gave away lShow more
Pedri 7/10
Like Rodri, barely put a foot wrong with his distribution even up against a Croatia midfield filled with experience. Barcelona midfielder already has 20 caps to his name aged just 21 and will be key pShow more
Lamine Yamal 8/10
Youngest player ever in Euros history at 16 years and 338 days. Winger involved in build-up to second goal and supplied perfect cross for Carvajal to make it 3-0. Denied second-half goal by fine LivakShow more
Nico Williams 7/10
Helped keep Croatia stretched by hugging left touchline with Yamal doing same on opposite flank. Coach Luis de La Fuente said the pair “have a gift from God" and although Williams did not have massiveShow more

Dominik Livakovic 7/10
CROATIA RATINGS: Fenerbahce goalkeeper had no chance with any of the goals as defence opened up by excellent Spanish passing. Brilliant save to deny Yamal second-half goal. EPA
Josip Stanisic 7/10
Should have scored in second-half but Cucurella able to block his shot. Defensively, will be happy enough with how he dealt with pace and trickery of Williams. EPA
Josip Sutalo 6/10
Dragged out of position for Spain opener, which gave Morata space to run through and finish. AP
Marin Pongracic 7/10
Centre of Croatia’s defence was ripped open for first goal as team lost its shape against quick counter-attack and Pongracic was unable to get back and prevent Morata scoring. EPA
Josko Gvardiol 7/10

Marcelo Brozovic 7/10
Part of a midfield three with 372 appearances between them going into the game. Thought he had pulled goal back for Croatia with side-footed finish only for Simon to save well. AP

Midfield maestro playing against country where he has played for last 12 seasons but will not have enjoyed this 90 minutes. Beaten by quick feet of Ruiz ahead of PSG player making it 2-0. Taken off alShow more
Andrej Kramaric 5/10
Failed to offer any cutting edge as Croatia’s attacking threat did not materialise and were completely outshone by the opposition’s forward players.
Lovro Majer 5/10
Anonymous showing from Wolfsburg attacker and can count himself lucky not to have been hooked. The Croatian fans that had taken over the Olympiastadion will have been bitterly disappointed at their poShow more
Ante Budimir 5/10
Attacker, who plies club trade with Osasuna in Spain, was feeding on scraps. Sent one difficult header high and wide, failed to get on end of Gvardiol cross with goal at mercy. Hooked before hour markShow more
Ivan Perisic 6/10
SUBS: (On for Budemir 56’) Huge fan favourite given superb reception when coming on. His encroachment into box before penalty would result on Petkovic being denied a consolation goal. EPA
