15 Points and One Final Battle for Top Spot
Nada ha cambiado tras el partido de Praga. Los resultados de España e Inglaterra en esta penúltima jornada de la UEFA Nations League dejan la clasificación tal y como estaba: con los de Luis de la Fuente en lo más alto, tres puntos por delante de los Three Lions.
Nothing has changed following the match in Prague. Spain and England’s results in this penultimate round of the UEFA Nations League have left the standings exactly as they were: Luis de la Fuente’s side remain top, three points ahead of the Three Lions.
After beating Czechia 0-2 at Letná Stadium, Spain have maintained their 100% winning record and improved their goal difference, confirming their status as the team in form in this edition of the competition. England, meanwhile, secured a 2-1 home victory over Croatia, a result that confirms their place in the quarter-finals.
Now, the two sides will battle for top spot in Group A3 at the Metropolitano. A win or a draw would be enough for Spain to secure first place, while a defeat would mean that goal difference in the head-to-head matches comes into play. The first meeting between the sides ended 3-2 to England.
If the teams remain level, overall goal difference would be the next deciding factor. That currently favours the English, who have a +11 record compared with Spain’s +9.
Five matches, 15 points and one final test against England: Spain have everything to play for as they look to put the finishing touch on a perfect group-stage campaign.
