UEFA Nations League: Denmark stun Spain to reach final four
Spain's hopes of reaching the UEFA Nations League final four were dashed as they were stunned 2-1 by Denmark
Denmark will now face England in the semi-finals
Denmark produced a stunning performance to beat Spain 2-1 in Copenhagen and reach the UEFA Nations League final four.
The Danes took the lead through Jonas Wind in the 17th minute, and although Mikel Oyarzabal equalised for Spain just before half-time, Andreas Skov Olsen scored the winner in the 55th minute.
Spain had the majority of possession and chances, but they were unable to break down a resolute Danish defence.
The result means that Denmark will now face England in the semi-finals, while Spain will play Italy in the third-place play-off.
Denmark's victory was a major upset, as Spain were the favourites to win the group.
However, the Danes were well-organised and disciplined, and they took their chances when they came.
Spain, on the other hand, were disappointing.
They lacked creativity and cutting edge in attack, and they were unable to cope with Denmark's physicality and intensity.
The result is a major blow to Spain's hopes of winning their first major trophy since 2012.
They will now have to regroup and focus on qualifying for the 2022 World Cup.
For Denmark, this victory is a major boost.
They have now won their last four matches, and they will be confident of causing an upset against England in the semi-finals.
