Joshua King scored a 94th-minute penalty to earn Norway a 1-1 Euro 2020 qualifier draw at home to Spain, who would have sealed their place at the finals with victory.

Saul Niguez’s goal 62 seconds into the second half looked to have extended Spain’s perfect record to seven wins from seven in Group F at Ullevaal Stadion on Saturday.

But Kepa Arrizabalaga’s foul on Omar Elabdellaoui in stoppage time handed Norway a golden chance to deny Robert Moreno’s men the points they needed.

King stepped up to beat the Chelsea goalkeeper from the spot on the day Spain captain Sergio Ramos broke Iker Casillas’ appearance record for La Roja.
