Nico Williams, Brother of Ghana forward Inaki Williams, has registered his debut assist for the Spanish National Men’s Football Team.
The 20 year old assisted Alvaro Morata’s goal in Spain’s 1-0 win over Iberian rival Portugal in the UEFA Nations League Group A game.
Nico squared a cross from full back Dani Carvajal with his head for Atletico Madrid forward Morata to run on to and easily tap the ball into the net in the 88th minute.
The win qualifies Spain to the next round of the Nations League at the expense of Nations League winners Portugal; the Cristiano Ronaldo led team needed a draw or a win to secure its place in the next round of the competition.
Nico made his debut for Spain at the senior level on September 24 in a 1-2 loss to Switzerland where he played 27 minutes on the right wing. In the win over Portugal, Williams was deployed on the left wing.
Born to Ghanaian parents, Nico could have joined brother Inaki in the Black Stars setup but opted to play for Spain after accepting a call up from Spain head coach Luis Enrique.
