LdN: Portugal expands, Spain surprised

The League of Nations continued this Sunday. In the evening, Portugal clearly dominated the Czech Republic (4-0), thanks to the double goals of Dalot (33, 52), Fernandez (45 + 2) and Jota (82). Holder, Ronaldo didn’t score and Ronaldo had a good scare in his confrontation with the opposing goalkeeper (see short film at 9:37pm), but the Mancunian was the crucial passer for the fourth goal. With the three points, Spain moved two lengths clear in Group 2 of the Portuguese League A, having stunned Switzerland at home (1-2). Alba (55) answered Akanji (21) but Monaco striker Mbolo (58) put the Swiss in front. Portugal and Spain will meet in the final four qualifiers on Tuesday.
