Wout van Aert (Visma-Lease A Bike) scored his second stage win of the Vuelta a España and extended his green jersey lead on stage 7, sprinting to glory from a vastly reduced lead group in Cordoba.

The Belgian beat Mathias Vacek (Lidl-Trek) to the line to conclude the 180.5km stage after the GC favourites and in particular Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe had blown the peloton apart over the late climb of the Alto del 14%, 25.5km from the finish.
