Alvaro Morata has become the fifth player to score in his first two World Cup appearances for Spain - matching Fernando Torres in the process. The Atletico Madrid striker came off the bench to net against Germany on Sunday. However, it wasn't enough to earn his side a draw with Niclas Fullkrug pegging the 2010 champions back to earn his side a draw.
Spain had gone into their match with Germany hoping to make it two wins from two at the World Cup.
However, despite Morata's goal, La Roja were forced to settle for a point with Fullkrug scoring to send fans of Hansi Flick's side wild in the stadium.
Morata is a divisive figure for Spain but, now, has joined Torres in becoming a player for the country to net in his first two World Cup matches.
Basora, Zarra, and Jon Andoni Goikoetxea have also done the same.
However, Morata's achievement is actually made more impressive by the fact he's the only one of the lot to do it as a substitute.

And Alan Shearer, speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, also hailed Morata for his contribution while expressing a belief Luis Enrique deserves credit.
"When you're a coach or a manager you're making subs because you need them to have an impact, to win the game or save the game," he stated.
"Morata offered a threat in behind, some of his runs were incredible.
"Your job as a forward is to get across and be there to the ball first. That's the impact Luis Enrique needed."
Manchester City star Ilkay Gundogan, meanwhile, has claimed Germany should have taken their chances earlier - but thinks a draw was a fair result.

"We could've scored earlier," he said. "We scored but unfortunately it was disallowed.
"We had really good chances and if you look at the chances we were a little bit better but in the end the result was fair against a very tough Spain side. Now it's all about the last game of the group stage.
"It's crazy. A competition like the World Cup and playing such a tournament you already know it's going to be dramatic.
"Some games are full of different momentums - up and down. I was on the bench talking to Thomas Muller and we felt there was a goal for us.
"The finish from Niclas was unbelievable, a typical striker's finish and he stood up when we really needed it."
