Replace values with more text contains

Hi Everyone!

How to Replace values with a text, where some text X contains in column A then Replate Column B values Y else value column A
Example:

 

ADDRESSCOUNTRY
EDIFICIO IBERCONSA-FRIGALSA LA, RIOUXA S/N - TEIS VIGO-PONTEVEDRA, 36216 SPAIN, PT36216 SPAIN
AVDA. EL CHOPO 4, 39311 SANTIAGO DE CARTES, CANTABRIA, SPAIN, ESSPAIN
AVDA. EL CHOPO 4, 39311 SANTIAGO DE CARTES, CANTABRIA, SPAIN, ESSPAIN

 

Result

AVDA. EL CHOPO 4, 39311 SANTIAGO DE CARTES, CANTABRIA, SPAIN, ESSPAIN


MY code :  option text X is list not working

 

 

 

Table.ReplaceValue(#"Replaced Value8",each [COUNTRY], each
            if Text.Contains([ADDRESS],{", PT",", ES"}) then "SPAIN" else
                [COUNTRY], Replacer.ReplaceValue, {"COUNTRY"})

 

How to fix it 

 

Thanks & Regards,
