Date:<\/strong> 03\/23<\/p> Time:<\/strong> 03:45 pm ET<\/p> Location<\/strong>: Mestalla Stadium, Valencia<\/p> Where to watch:<\/strong> The match can be watched on fuboTV in the USA<\/p> In the first leg in Rotterdam, Spain started brightly as they constantly pushed the hosts on the back foot and Lamine Yamal dispossessed fellow young starlet Jorrel Hato and Nico Williams Jr. put the ball in the back of the net to give La Roja an early 1-0 lead in the two-legged tie. Before the clock could strike the half-hour mark, the Netherlands forward Cody Gakpo found himself in acres of space unmarked by any Spanish defender and the Liverpool forward found the back of the net to equalize on the night.<\/p> Ronald Koeman instilled confidence in his side during the half-time break and within 40 seconds of the restart, Tijjani Reijnders gave his side a 2-1 lead courtesy of a darting run from Jeremie Frimpong past Marc Cucurella as the Spanish defenders had no clue what hit them immediately after the restart. With less than 10 minutes of regulation time remaining, Hato was sent off for a late sliding tackle on Robin Le Normand and with only 10 men on the field, the Dutch resistance eventually gave in as Mikel Merino equalized the tie with a late leveller.<\/p> Spain topped Group A4 which consisted of Denmark, Serbia, and Switzerland which gave them a comparatively easier pathway to the quarter-final but the reigning Nations League champions are not taking anything for granted as seen in the first leg in Rotterdam where they kept hustling till the last minute.<\/p> Pau Cubarsi had to be taken off the field in the first leg around the 40-minute mark with an ankle injury cutting short his time on the pitch as the Barcelona defender was replaced by Dean Huijsen who made his debut for Spain against the Netherlands despite being born in Amsterdam. According to Luis da la Fuente, Cubarsi has a minor sprain and should be fit for Sunday’s fixture but La Roja are unlikely to risk the youngster given Barcelona’s injury crisis.<\/p> Koeman’s men were in group A2 with Germany, Hungary, and Bosnia and Herzegovina as they finished second to set up a quarter-final against Spain and the Oranje would be committed to take revenge for their 2010 FIFA World Cup final loss.<\/p> The Netherlands’ joint-top scorer Denzel Dumfries has been ruled out of both legs of the quarter-final and RB Leipzig’s Lutsharel Geertruia is expected to continue to deputize for the Inter star at right-back. Hato picked up a straight red card in the 81st minute and the Ajax defender will also miss the second leg of the crucial fixture which could prove detrimental to the Dutch side’s chances of qualifying for the semi-final of the tournament.<\/p> The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game.
