Oyarzabal had opened the scoring for Spain in the 64th minute after getting on to a through pass before hitting a low left-foot strike beyond Hugo Lloris.
But France hit back just two minutes after Spain’s opener through Benzema’s sublime curler into the far corner.
And just as extra-time was beginning to become a real possibility, Mbappe grabbed the winner with 10 minutes left.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward ran on to a pass stepped over the ball before slidding the ball beneath Unai Simon in goal for Spain.
The Spanish players claimed Mbappe was offside but replays showed the ball touched Eric Garcia first before getting to Mbappe.
Oyarzabal almost drew Spain level with a one-time strike from a cross but Lloris made a good save.
