Sports Desk: The runners-up team of the previous edition. Is that Spain not winning the first two matches of the current UEFA Nations League? However, the team of coach Luis Enrique finally saw the face of victory in the goal of Pablo Sarabia without PSG. His only goal was a 1-0 win over Switzerland last night in La Furia Rohara. Spain drew their first two matches in the League of Nations with Portugal and the Czech Republic. So the team's fight on Thursday night was to keep alive the hope of going to the knockout stage of the competition. Enrique's team took control of the match from the start in this Group A2 match of the League of Nations. However, the attacking side's weakness in chasing the team back from the Euros has suffered a lot in this match as well. Only one shot could be aimed against 64 percent of the ball possession. Sarabia's shot in the 13th minute gave the Spaniards the lead. He easily scored the goal in the opponent's box from the extended pass of Marcos Yorent. However, it was seen in the replay that his leg was a bit offside. Even if the decision is made up to VAR, that goal remains in force in the end. The Swiss had two chances in the remaining half of the first half, but two headers from Brill Embolo and Era Kamet failed to put Spain to the test. Spain also got the opportunity and could not put the opponent in danger. The same scene was seen on the field even after the break. Both parties are creating some opportunities, but no one has been put to work. Meanwhile, the hero of the first half Sarabia was also the most terrible player of the match in the second half. The matter was, of course, speculative. After two seasons of PSG neglect, Sarabia, who joined Sporting Lisbon at the start of the season, has had a good last year. However, the Spanish team has spread more light. He has contributed nine goals in the last one year. He has scored three goals in the last five matches and scored one more. Spain won last night with his goal. In the other match of the day, Portugal lost 2-0 to Czech Republic. As a result, they are at the top with 6 points in three matches. Spain finished second in the list with 5 points in a draw.
