Croatia vs Spain in the 2023 UEFA Nations League final, (June 18), at the De Kuip Stadium in Rotterdam. The match could also turn into a goal fest as the last three encounters between both sides have seen 19 goals. Croatia have not won a major international trophy and this is their opportunity to win the 2022-23 Nations League when they clash with Spain in Sunday's final in Rotterdam. Joselu scored a late winner for Spain as they knocked Italy out in the semifinals, while Croatia defeated the Netherlands in extra time in the final four. Spain have now reached back-to-back Nation League finals. This is first meeting between the two sides since the round of 16 in the 2020 European Championships, which was played in 2021. Spain won 5-3 after extra time in what was a dramatic fixture. Zlatko Dalic has put together a talented team that has developed a certain penchant for winning knockout games of football in extra time, a feat they pulled off again when downing Netherlands in an entertaining semi-final during the week. Spain, meanwhile, edged Italy via a late Joselu goal. Croatia finished third in the World Cup last year and runner-up in 2018, and winning the Nations League would cap 37-year-old Luka Modric’s international career in what would be the Real Madrid midfielder’s 166th game for his country. Spain, meanwhile, edged past Italy on Thursday thanks to a late winner from late-blooming striker Joselu, and will be hoping to make amends for their defeat to France in the final of the 2021 edition of this tournament, which is UEFA's secondary competition. He plays a similar role in Luis de la Fuente's Spain side, sitting in front of the defence and sometimes has a partner alongside him in a double pivot, which we expect to be Fabián Ruíz in today's game against Croatia. After Spain edged out Italy, thanks to a late winner from 33-year-old Joselu in Thursday’s semi-final, Luis de la Fuente’s side will have the chance to win their first major title since triumphing at the 2012 European Championship (Jordi Alba being the sole survivor from that iconic team). The current squad may be lacking in star power but they have impressed by reaching a second straight Nations League final.
