Fi have to wait until the end in Split. The world champion in title Spain avoided stumbling for the first time in this year's edition of the League of Nations group phase by winning, by two balls to one, on the visit to Croatia, which was valid for the fourth day of the A3 group of this competition.
At Poljud Stadium, which serves as home for the Croats of the Hajduk Split, Sportinguist Ivan Fresneda saw from the bench of alternates what was a miracle of the Spaniards at this stage of groups, they coming from three consecutive victories until tonight.
And it was against the expectations of most of the followers that the Croats opened the marker upon minute 17. Ivan Perisic broke the null, at an advantage of the home team that remained in the interval.
Spaniards turned around in the second half
To lose at the meeting, Luis de la Fuente made a change in the team to the interval and launched in Mikel Merino field. Spain's picker's bet could not have been better, since the Arsenal's advance tied on top of minute 61. Shortly after, and upon the 80th minute, Perisic saw the second yellow and ended up being expelled by the referee from the meeting.
As he fell from the cloth, and as the first Spanish stumbled into the League of Nations, behold, the same Merino became hero of the meeting and bisou to deliver the three points to the Spaniards upon the 88th minute.
Harry Kane Bisa in front of the Czech Republic
At Wembley Stadium in London, England's team won the reception to the Czech Republic for three unresponsive goals, with Harry Kane being the great figure of the meeting.
On a historic night for Harry Kane, who matched Peter Shilton's historic record as the most internationalized player in England (125), Bayern Munich's advance was even the man of the game on British soil.
The null on the marker was broken thanks to Vladimir Coufal's autolo on top of the 27th minute, before another night of Harry Kane's glory in the three lions' jersey, which left this break with six goals and an assist after four games performed.
The English jersey 9 tied the match on top of the 40th minute, before bisar to the passage of the 57th minute to fix on three goals of the selection that is directed by Thomas Tuchel.
With this result, England remains in the second position of Group A3, with nine points added, to three of Spain's leader. The Czech Republic, on the other hand, remains at its last place, with no point yet taken and three in the third Croatia.
