Nations League - Match Report | Nine goals and a total show between Spain and France! When a cock lands in a corida arena

"The Gallic cock" struggled, pinched, scratched, fantastically reborn, but in the end got his ass kicked, 5-4, by a young and arrogant bullfighter who seemed to be having fun with his opponent.

Spain was both agile and monumental, formidable as a group, brilliant as individuals, serious but also naive in this superb Nations League semi-final. A match that dynamited that petty, narrow-minded view that the Nations League is a competition that nobody cares about, especially after a grueling season. It wasn't like that at all, Spain and France threw everything they had into the fray and respected their royal footballing blazons.''
