If Austria had hoped halftime might slow Spain down...
Those hopes disappeared almost immediately after the restart.
Barely four minutes into the second half, Lamine collected possession near the right touchline once again.
This time again, Lamine followed him and so did another defender.
Lamine welcomed both and dragged them toward the corner before rolling the ball backwards through the space that had already opened as a result of the duo's decision to follow him, and Pedro Porro sprinted straight through it.
The latter reached it in stride before driving a low finish beyond Schlager to make it two-nil on the night for Spain, right as the commentary on the broadcast and the celebrations cued.
"This Spain side simply refuses to ease into halves. They've come out exactly as they ended the first. And Austria have been punished again."
"They're not even at full strength," the co-commentator replied, "but they are running away with this."
