La Roja was lucky enough to dodge one of the complicated rivals from pot B, though they will meet the voracious Haaland and the dangerous Kvaratskhelia, two of the latest sensations in European football
The Spanish team already knows the roadmap to the European Championship in Germany in 2024. La Roja will be drawn in Group A and will share their path with Scotland, Norway, Georgia and Cyprus, with two places at stake for the final phase, which will not have excessive problems to achieve its goal and participate in the great tournament of national teams of the old continent, something that it has always achieved since the distant 1992.
Against the Scottish side, Spain was already on their way to the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine in 2012, with a double win 3-1 in Alicante and 2-3 in Hampden Park. Norway, for its part, which has the devastating Erling Haaland as its big star, is a long-time acquaintance of qualifying for the 2020 and 2004 European Championships and although La Roja has only lost to the Nordic team in one of their eight previous clashes, it was mainly painful because it was the last stage of the European Championship in the Netherlands in 2000.
Georgia, which has Napoli forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia as its biggest threat, has been a rival in recent history as they crossed paths with Luis Enrique’s men to the World Cup in Qatar, with a double Spanish win, albeit very tight in Tbilisi.
Spain will try to take one of two final stages in four international windows between March and November 2023, being included in one of seven groups of five teams as it has to play the last four of the League of Nations in June next year. .
