Remo Freuler (26th) and Zeki Amdouni (45th + 1/foul penalty) twice gave Nati the lead, while Gustav Isaksen (27th) and Christian Eriksen (69th) were able to equalize for the guests. Switzerland remains bottom of Group A4 with just one point behind Serbia (four points). Denmark has seven points and has its sights firmly set on the quarter-finals together with Spain (ten points). RB striker Yussuf Poulsen did not play this time after playing for 20 minutes in the 0-1 win against Spain.
Spain in the quarterfinals
Defending champion Spain followed Germany into the quarter-finals of the Nations League. The European champions deservedly won 3-0 (1-0) against Serbia on the fourth matchday of Group A4. Aymeric Laporte (5th minute) scored early with a header for the Spaniards, who missed numerous other chances in the first half. After the break, Alvaro Morata first shot a hand penalty over the goal (54th), before doing better shortly afterwards (65th). Alex Baena (77th) scored the final point with a direct free kick. Serbia’s Strahinja Pavlovic (76th) had previously been sent off with a red card.
Portugal and Croatia, on the other hand, missed early qualification for the quarter-finals in Group A1. Portugal had to settle for a goalless draw in a tough game in Scotland. Record goalscorer Cristiano Ronaldo failed to score for the first time in this edition of the Nations League.
Lewandowski was only on the bench during the goal spectacle against Croatia
Croatia played 3:3 (3:2) in Poland. For Poland, record player and captain Robert Lewandowski surprisingly initially only sat on the bench. His deputy Piotr Zielinski gave the hosts an early lead (5th).
Croatia turned the game around within seven minutes with goals from Borna Sosa (19th), Petar Sucic (24th) and Martin Baturina (26th). Shortly before the break, Nicola Zalewski (45th) scored the goal before Sebastian Szymanski (68th) scored the final score in the second half. Croatia’s goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic (76th) saw the red card. Hoffenheim’s Andrej Kramaric made his 100th international appearance.
