It’s been a long and winding road, but Spain have finally secured their spot in the UEFA Nations League quarter-finals! On Tuesday evening, they took down Serbia with a comfortable 3-0 win, thanks to impressive goals from Aymeric Laporte, Alvaro Morata, and Alex Baena.
Meanwhile, Portugal were left frustrated in their 0-0 draw with Scotland, leaving them to rue missed opportunities and a missed penalty from Cristiano Ronaldo. The 39-year-old superstar stormed off the pitch at full-time, but the damage was already done.
So, what did we learn from these thrilling Nations League matches? Well, for starters, Spain’s victory means they’re the second team to book their quarter-final spot, joining Germany in the process. Spain’s unbeaten record in Group A4 remains intact, with Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, two stars of Euro 2024, missing out. But their absence didn’t hinder them as they moved past Serbia with an assertive display.
In other Group A4 action, Denmark snuck up to the point table, thanks to a thrilling 2-2 draw with Switzerland. The Danes scored twice, with Remo Freuler’s opener canceled out by Gustav Isaksen. Zeki Amdouni’s penalty put Switzerland back in front, but Christian Eriksen struck late on to salvage a point for Denmark.
