The new UEFA competition resumes, with a number of exciting fixtures headed our way.
The international break is here, meaning the UEFA Nations League will resume action. This new and exciting tournament kicked off in the last international break, with a few European heavyweights suffering awful defeats.
One of them was Croatia, having been thrashed by Spain in their opener. Next up for the World Cup runner-up is an interesting encounter with England. Elsewhere, France and Germany will locks horns.
Here are the top 10 UEFA Nations League matches from October 10-16 and the key talking points.
Croatia shocked the entire world and reached the World Cup final last summer. They eventually lost the final to France, but finishing as runner-up was an achievement in itself.
However, a question soon arose: was it a mere fluke or can Vatreni become a powerhouse in Europe and the international football scene? Their 6-0 loss to Spain in their opener did not help their case.
Modric and Co. must show that they were anything but a fluke. On Friday they will take on England, a side looking to prove something similar after making the World Cup semis courtesy of favorable opponents.
