The UEFA Nations League kicked off its quarterfinals with four matches that brought the Old Continent to a standstill . One of the most compelling spectacles took place at the magnificent Poljud Stadium in Split . There, Croatia pulled off a stunning upset in front of its home crowd with a 2-0 victory over France .
Goals from Ante Budimir and Ivan Perisic sealed the victory, putting Zlatko Dalić's side well on the path to a rematch. The deficit could have been even greater, but Mike Maignan saved a penalty from Andrej Kramaric early in the matchday.
What was striking was what happened between Kylian Mbappé and Luka Modric, teammates at Real Madrid but enemies with their national teams. In the second half, when Le Bleu was trailing, the former PSG striker tried to invent a penalty when the experienced Croatian midfielder perfectly cleared the ball. The hugs they had exchanged beforehand were forgotten when the 2018 Ballon d'Or winner ran several meters to correct the Frenchman for not resorting to Fair Play . They were immediately separated, and the Croatian captain received congratulations from his colleagues for his exemplary tackle.
Meanwhile, at the Stadion Feijenoord , the Netherlands and Spain drew 2-2. Despite Spain opening the scoring in the ninth minute through Nico Williams , the Orange turned things around with authority and authority, both in terms of their dominance on the pitch and the result. The Dutch managed to take control and dominated the game after the Athletic Bilbao winger's goal .
Cody Gakpo and Tijani Reijnders were responsible for putting the home team ahead, although a gross error by Bart Verbruggen allowed Mikel Merino to seal the final 2-2 draw in the land of the tulips.
Furthermore, at the San Siro-Giuseppe Meazza , Germany won 2-1 against Italy in a match marked by even ties and intense physical contact. Sandro Tonali opened the match from the locker room, but the Azzurri were unable to withstand the German attacking prowess. Tim Kleindienst and Leon Goretzka turned the tables on the Teutons , who will look to close out the tie in Bavarian territory.
Denmark finally managed to beat Portugal by the narrowest of margins in a duel played at Parken Stadium . In a lackluster first half, Christian Eriksen had a chance to open the scoring from the penalty spot. However, with the help of Cristiano Ronaldo , who whispered in his ear before the penalty was taken, Diogo Costa saved his shot.
Despite wasting that clear chance, the Danes managed to break the deadlock after a superb piece of associative play that ended with Rasmus Höjlund tapping the ball into the net.
