Defeat for Spain against Switzerland (2-1 for the Swiss in Zaragoza thanks to goals from Akanji and Embolo and Jordi Alba), victory for Portugal (4-0, brace from Dalot and goals from Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Jota) in home of the Czech Republic and overtaking the Lusitanians who take the lead in group 2 of the League A of the Champions League in anticipation of the challenge with the red furies on Tuesday.
Fright for Cristiano Ronaldo: in the 14th minute of the first half the Portuguese in a game contrast with the opposing goalkeeper, Vaclik, was hit in the face. Bleeding in the nose and remained on the ground for a few minutes, after being rescued by the CR7 medical staff he decided to stay on the field, not without apprehension: in the recovery of the first half, on a corner for the hosts, he raised his arm up a high ball and caused a penalty kick then missed by Schick. An instinctive gesture probably dictated by the fear of receiving another blow to the nose.
In the other matches, Scotland-Ireland 2-1, Israel-Albania 2-1, Serbia-Sweden 4-1; Cyprus 1-0 Greece; Slovenia 2-1 Norway, Northern Ireland Kosovo 2-1 and Armenia-Ukraine 0-5.
