With this victory, Spain moves on to the quarterfinals to face Germany, while Georgia's journey in the tournament ends here.

From the opening whistle, Georgia attempted to spring a surprise, but they struggled to even carry the ball past the midfield. Spain's players were quick to intercept, maintaining relentless pressure on the Georgian defense.

In the fourth minute, Pedri came close to scoring after a slide to meet Carvajal's cross, but Georgia's goalkeeper Mamardashvili managed to block the effort.

Another opportunity arose for Spain in the 10th minute from a corner on the right. Carvajal's header towards the near post was again stopped by Mamardashvili.

Georgia then stunned everyone in the 17th minute when Robin Le Normand inadvertently deflected a cross from the right into his own net, giving Georgia a 1-0 lead.

Spain continued to assault the Georgian defense. Fabian Ruiz’s powerful shot was saved by Mamardashvili, and Pedri's attempt went over the crossbar.

In the 34th minute, Cucurella tried a long-range shot from the left half-space, but Mamardashvili once more made a crucial save. Three minutes later, Nico Williams had a close-range attempt after receiving a pass from Yamal, but again Mamardashvili blocked the shot.

Spain finally equalized in the 38th minute. Rodri received a pass from Nico on the left and struck a left-footed shot into the bottom left corner of Mamardashvili’s goal, leveling the score at 1-1.

No further goals were scored in the first half, keeping the score tied as the teams headed into the break.

In the second half, Spain resumed their offensive pressure. Georgia found themselves pushed deep into their own half, struggling to cope with Spain's attacks.

Spain took the lead in the 52nd minute when Fabian Ruiz, unmarked, headed in a cross from Lamine Yamal on the right flank, making it 2-1.

In the 62nd minute, a misplaced pass by Kochorasvili fell to Lamine Yamal just outside the penalty area, but his left-footed shot veered off target.

Spain struck again in the 73rd minute with a counterattack from the left flank. Nico Williams drove the ball from midfield into the penalty area, evading a defender and shooting past Mamardashvili to make it 3-1.

Spain had another chance in the 79th minute. Yamal broke into the penalty box, combining with Dani Olmo, but Mamardashvili managed to block Yamal's attempt.

In the 83rd minute, Dani Olmo scored with a left-footed shot from outside the box after beating a defender, extending Spain’s lead to 4-1.

Despite their commanding lead, Spain continued to press for more goals but couldn’t break Georgia's defense again.

Ultimately, Spain secured a 4-1 victory, sending Georgia home and advancing to the quarterfinals.
