The Spanish National Team did not fail and surpassed group E despite initial doubts and is already in the round of 16 of Euro 2021. However, the two setbacks against Sweden and Poland have caused La Roja to be second and have to face a more fearsome rival such as Croatia.
The chess team has lost some of the players that led it to play in the final of the 2018 World Cup in Russia such as Rakitic or Mandukic, but thanks to Modric, who has been exhibited in the group stage, he also managed to overcome his group as second behind England.
The round of 16 match will take Spain to play at the Parken in Copenhagen, Denmark's headquarters in this European Championship that is being played in several different venues and that during the group stage already hosted all three of Denmark's matches, including the duel against Finland in which Christian Eriksen suffered a heart problem from which he is fortunately recovering.
This Monday, June 28, will be the ninth duel between Croatia and Spain in history and the balance is favorable to La Roja with 4 victories for the 3 that the Balkan team has won and only one draw.
In the history of the Eurocup they were measured twice, both in the group stage. In the 2012 edition in which Spain ended up winning by 0-1 and was champion of that edition. Four years later the Croats took revenge and beat Vicente del Bosque's team 2-1 and that defeat forced them to face Italy in the second round.
