England's hopes of qualifying for next summer's Uefa Nations League Finals are still alive after Croatia beat Spain 3-2 in Zagreb on Thursday night.
However, the threat of relegation remains for England as a score draw or a defeat will see them finish bottom of the group.
Heading into Thursday night's action, Spain would have qualified for the finals of the new tournament - set to take place next June - if they had beaten World Cup finalists Croatia in their own back yard.
England needed Spain to avoid winning in order to stand a chance ahead of the Three Lions' final group game against Croatia, and got their wish as Tin Jedvaj struck his second goal of the game in injury time to seal a dramatic win.
League A, Group 4
| Pos | Team | P | W | D | L | GD | Pts |
| 1 | Spain | 4 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 6 | 6 |
| 2 | England | 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 4 |
| 3 | Croatia | 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | -5 | 4 |
The result leaves England second in group 4 of League A, but a victory over Croatia will ensure that they progress to the semi-finals of the Nations League next June due to their superior head-to-head record against Spain, having lost against La Roja 2-1 at home before beating them 3-2 away.
As for Croatia, they will pip England to that prize if they beat the Three Lions at Wembley on Sunday afternoon.
Spain's fall from grace in the group is clear - they have gone from needing just a point at home to England in their third game to now needing a draw between the Three Lions and Croatia in order to progress.
