Spain continues its unbeaten streak against Denmark – Nations League – Group 4 – J5

Without Yamal, peace of mind all the same.

Their last defeat dates back to March, a friendly against Colombia. Since then, two draws and thirteen victories. The latest against Denmark, which formalizes their qualification for the quarter-finals of the Nations League. Luis de la Fuente’s Spain continues to unfold. Denmark, at home, paid the price this Friday evening (1-2). Even without Lamine Yamal (and still Rodri), captain Mikel Oyarzabal was first at the conclusion of a magnificent combination, the kind of one that reminds us that football is fluid and pretty (0-1, 15^e). Ayoze Pérez then doubled the lead, splendidly served by Dani Olmo (0-2, 58^e). Then the Euro winner got scared. To break his 34-match unbeaten streak with Roja, Fabián Ruiz could not have done better. The PSG midfielder got down to his club level by completely missing his back pass for David Raya, which benefited Gustav Isaksen (2-1, 84^e). Parken could have capsized on Andreas Skov Olsen’s floating ball in added time.

In the other match of the group, Serbia and Switzerland left without a winner (1-1). Switzerland says goodbye to Pool A of the Nations League. At the whistle, Clément Turpin could have reddened his toast on Aleksa Terzić, who raised her sole a little too high. He brought out the whistle to legislate on the former Nantes player Eray Cömert, at fault against Alexsandar Mitrović. Penalty missed for scorer of the Saudi Pro League (55^e). Zeki Amdouni then opened the scoring for the Swiss with a great strike (1-0, 78^e). But the Nati has not won in six games because of Aleksa Terzić’s counter-attack (1-1, 88^e).

Buts: Isaksen (84^e) for the Danes // Oyarzabal (15^e) and Pérez (58^e) for Roja

Buts : Amdouni (78^e) pour la Nati // Terzić (88^e) for Serbia.

Aymeric Laporte gave a nice gift to his Euro winning partners
