After a starring role in Newcastle's EFL Cup final win, Sandro Tonali has opened the scoring for Italy. The European champions are ahead in Rotterdam via a Nico Williams goal, with the Athletic star striking from close range after slack Dutch passing from the back.

Rasmus Hojlund's 78th minute goal hands the Danes victory on the night and a one goal advantage in the tie ahead of the second leg in Lisbon on Sunday. Nico Williams cuts inside from the left and unleashes a rasping drive which Bart Verbruggen can't gather, and Arsenal man Mikel Merino is on hand to roll the ball in.

The quarter-final round, which has been a new addition to the UEFA Nations League in its fourth edition, will see the winners and runners-up from the four League A groups. The teams that have secured their places in the quarter-finals are Italy, Germany, Spain, Portugal, France, Netherlands, Denmark, and Croatia.
