Czech Republic - Spain live | The second part begins in Prague

Spain is beating the Czech Republic this Thursday on the fifth day of the Nations League. In a very even first half and in which Spain was barely able to generate danger, a handball from Ambros in the area on a rained ball gave Luis de la Fuente's team the opportunity to take the lead. Álex Baena took responsibility and converted the maximum penalty to give Spain the advantage.

La Roja visits Prague with the mission of maintaining the total number of victories to reach the last match against England as group leader, its objective after achieving classification in the previous selection sale. Luis de la Fuente does not have Lamine Yamal tonight, who ended up injured in Barcelona's last game against Atlético at the Metropolitano. Spain faces the Czech team led by the Spanish Santi Denia, who have lost the four games they have played and if they fall tonight they would be relegated to League B.

Spain cannot at the moment with its rival

Luis de la Fuente's team lacks precision and more rhythm, which has barely generated any danger so far in the game. The ball almost does not reach the extremes so that they can face the rivals and when they arrive the ball goes back.
