West Ham United’s Pablo Fornals has enjoyed a great start to the season, and his campaign went to another level on Wednesday night with a goal for Spain.

After an assist against Newcastle United on the opening weekend of the season, Fornals has scored in his last two West Ham outings – and hasn’t slowed down with Spain.
The 25-year-old bagged an assist in a 30-minute cameo for Spain against Georgia on Sunday, and was then handed a start against Kosovo last night.
Fornals continued his blistering form by scoring the opener for Spain in a 2-0 win, firing a powerful strike into the net on his weaker left side.
