MATCH PREVIEW | Spain looking for round off the year with a win

The Spanish National Team has already qualified for the semi-finals of the UEFA Women's Nations League, but in this last match of the group stage the team want to end the year with a statement victory. Up against them is Sweden, one of the superpowers of women's football, with stars such as Asllani. But Montse Tomé's team beat them in the first round of matches and intend to repeat the feat again tonight.

Sweden are an incredibly tough opponent. In fact, they are currently the only team ahead of Spain in the FIFA Rankings. All the more reason to go all out for the win, as the coach explained in her pre-match press conference: "I'm expecting a strong Sweden. They are a physically strong team. Both the defence and the midfield have players who can press the play and win back possession and are good at attacking the first or second ball. They're a strong team but we'll be going all out for the win.

The match, which kicks off at 19:00 (La 1), couldn't have a better setting, as Malaga expects a packed La Rosaleda stadium with thousands of people singing their hearts out to cheer on their Spanish stars. With this opponent, this stadium, these fans and these players, one couldn’t ask for a better way to round off the year.
