International break recap: Germany awaits as Spain qualify

La Liga Lowdown

Guten Tag! Spain have qualified for Euro 2024 following back-to-back wins in this October window.

Matt Clark (@MattClark_08) and Paco Polit (@pacopolitENG) discuss the two close encounters, beginning with Thursday night's win over Scotland in Seville.

Ruairidh Barlow (@RuriBarlow) - our Scot living in Spain - was at La Cartuja to witness the match, and shares his thoughts on the match and Luis de la Fuente's tenure so far.

We examine the controversy surrounding Scott McTominay's disallowed goal and explain why Spain were able to kick on from that point.

In Part Two we analyse Sunday's win in Oslo against a rather disappointing Norway side. There were more debatable decisions here too, with Álvaro Morata at the heart of most of it.

We conclude by assessing Spain's likelihood of contending next summer.
