- 90'+5'Spain end their Nations League campaign away from home against leaders Portugal on September 27, while Switzerland play the Czech Republic on the same day.
- 90'+5'Spain could not turn their dominant possession and passing statistics into a win as Switzerland take all three points from La Romareda after a 2-1 victory. Akanji’s opener from a corner in the first half was negated by a lovely Alba strike 10 minutes after the restart. A mad three minutes would ensue, ending in the winning goal - turned past Simon by Garcia following another dangerous Vargas set-piece. Luis Enrique’s side found it easy to get the ball into the opponent’s half but despite a host of attacking substitutions, they were unable to display clinical finishing as Sommer was equal to every effort. The win puts Spain second in the group while the win brings Switzerland up to third!
