Nacho out of Spain's starting eleven due to injury

Luis de la Fuente has only made one change from the eleven that beat Croatia 3-0. It was not Dani Olmo, but the presence of Aymeric Laporte in the centre of defence.

The victim was Nacho Fernandez, who, according to the RFEF, is suffering from muscular discomfort which has prevented him from being included in the eleven selected by the national coach.

Aymeric Laporte, who had been absent from the first game with muscular problems, will play his first minutes at this European Championship.

De la Fuente has decided not to take any risks with the centre-back, bearing in mind that Spain can qualify this Thursday or risk it in the final match against Albania.
