Spain Host England on Sunday Needing Only a Draw to Top Their Nations League Group
Spain's national team hosts England on Sunday, November 15 at 8:45 p.m. at Madrid's Metropolitano Stadium in the final round of League A Group 3 of the UEFA Nations League, a direct clash for first place in the group. Head coach Luis de la Fuente faced the media on November 14, a day after the squad returned from Prague to prepare in Madrid.
Spain leads the group with a perfect 15 points: an away 3–2 win over England, two wins over Croatia and two over Czechia. On November 12 in Prague, Spain beat Czechia 2–0, with Álex Baena converting a penalty in the 39th minute and substitute Marc Pubill sealing the win in the sixth minute of stoppage time; England beat Croatia 2–1 the same day to reach 12 points. Both teams have already qualified for the quarter-finals next March. A draw is enough for Spain to finish first; if England wins, the two would be level on 15 points and goal difference would decide. Spain's unbeaten run now stands at 44 matches.
Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal missed the Prague match through injury, and the federation has said it hopes both can be available on Sunday. The Metropolitano holds 70,692 spectators, and before kick-off the federation will hold a tribute to the late Jesús de Miguel. The quarter-final draw takes place on November 20.
