England are ahead of the Spaniards despite having failed to score in their 0-0 draw to the USA.

The Three Lions are aided by the six goals netted against Iran, but also went on to put three past Wales, putting them on nine goals.

This is one ahead of Spain, who added to their goals from the first match in their 1-1 draw with Germany.
