Spain created the record for most consecutive clean sheets at the FIFA World Cup on Monday during its 1-0 win against Portugal in the round of 16 in Dallas.
La Furia Roja has now gone six games without conceding a goal. No player managed to score past goalkeeper Unai Simon in 609 minutes.
The streak started at the previous World Cup in 2022, when Spain drew 0-0 against Morocco in the round of 16. Although the country lost on penalties, it was still recorded as zero.
Spain started this World Cup with a 0-0 draw against Cape Verde, before beating Saudi Arabia 4-0 and Uruguay 1-0.
In the Round of 32, Spain powered past Austria 3-0 to take their fifth straight clean sheet, and on Monday blocked Portugal from adding to the record.
