The World Cup quarter-finalists began Group B1 with a 2-1 victory over Slovenia, thanks to a goal from Dan Ndoye before half-time. Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Murat Yakin conceded for the first time in Swiss colors since his heroic performance in the World Cup. Dan Ndoye scored the opening goal, followed by a second from Ndoye in the 49th minute. Fabian Rieder came on as a substitute for the final minutes of the match. Switzerland will face North Macedonia, who are searching for their first goal of the tournament, at home on Tuesday. In League A, Spain maintained their perfect record with a 3-1 win over Czechia in Oviedo. Lamine Yamal scored twice, with Barcelona midfielder Rodri adding a third goal. Czechia had a chance to equalize with Adam Hložek's assist for Jiri Salama's goal, but they had to play the final minutes with ten men after captain Ladislav Krejčí received a second yellow card. Spain will now face Croatia in Split. England, who scored seven goals against Croatia, will face Czechia at home, hoping to secure more international goals before returning to Säbener Strasse.",
