Ramos and Sergi Roberto  traded passes in the corner before Perisic intercepted an impudent flick from  the latter to send Kramaric through on goal, the forward keeping his cool to  finish.Yet Spain suddenly awoke from their slumber and a flowing attacking move  down the left concluded with Isco squaring for Real Madrid team-mate Ceballos to  slide into the net.   Kalinic lost the ball at Iago Aspas' feet for a seemingly simple Spanish  second, but the forward prodded against the crossbar and Croatia were able to go  up the other end and restore their lead, Jedvaj nodding Luka Modric's teasing  cross in at close range.   De Gea denied Ante Rebic on the break at one end before a frantic scramble  saw Sime Vrsaljko block Alvaro Morata's on-target header at the other, although  the right-back's handball allowed Ramos to convert from 12 yards out.   However, there was still time for another twist as, with Croatia throwing  everyone forward, De Gea could only parry a low shot as far as Jedvaj in a  crowded penalty area, allowing the 22-year-old to settle a see-saw contest.</blockquote>
