UEFA Nations League: Two teams qualify for quarter-finals

The UEFA Nations League has seen Portugal and Spain secure spots in the quarter-finals. Spain clinched their place after a convincing 2-1 victory over Croatia on Tuesday evening, with Arsenal's Mikel Merino netting two goals and securing the win. Spain now boasts 12 points from four matches, while Portugal, who also qualified last week, remains undefeated.

The remaining teams will compete in two additional rounds between November 12 and 17 to determine the quarter-finalists. The draw for the quarter-finals is scheduled for March 25 to 30 in 2027, with the semi-finals taking place from June 9 to 13 in 2027. The two lowest-ranking third-placed teams and the two best fourth-placed teams will face off in a play-off to avoid relegation to a lower league, while the two worst fourth-placed teams will be relegated directly.
