Find the main results of this Thursday evening’s matches, counting for the qualifying campaign for Euro 2024.
This international break is finally launched with a first series of matches played this Thursday evening. While the Blues will face the Netherlands on Friday (8:45 p.m.), several outsiders from the next European Championship were on stage in the evening. Spain was more scrutinized than the others.
Second in the standings of their group, 6 points behind Scotland at the start of their match against the Tartan Army, La Roja approached their match with a certain pressure. And she held her place by signing a precious victory (2-0). We had to wait until the last 20 minutes to see the Iberians make the difference thanks to Morata (73rd) and Sancet (86th).
In Spain’s rearview mirror, Norway, third in Group A at the start of the evening, traveled to Cyprus to capitalize against an opponent well within their reach. Erling Haaland’s teammates did the job by winning quite clearly (4-0). And the Manchester City goal machine struck again, scoring twice in seven minutes (65th, 72nd).
In the other matches of the day, the best display took place in Croatia, where the checkered selection hosted Turkey. Luka Modric’s teammates missed the opportunity to distance themselves from their opponent of the day since they lost. Former Lille player Burak Yilmaz scored the only goal of the match at the half-hour mark (30th).
