Here’s Luka Modric’s reaction to that defeat and hopes for tonight’s game: double quotation markLosing isn’t the problem, but the way we lost is. I hope the fans will cheer us on as always and that, after the match, they can judge how we played. That’s what we need, so we’re hoping for a positive reaction because what happened hurts us more than anyone. Spain is the best team in the world. They’re the champions. I don’t know how Spain is going to interpret our defeat ... [but] what happened isn’t typical for our team, we all know that. Against the best team in the world, we have to fix everything, be aggressive, and not give them too much space to find solutions. Hello world!The Nations League is reaching the stage when decisions are made – indeed one could be made tonight, with Spain on the verge of joining their Iberian cousins Portugal in the quarter-finals, just one win for them and a lack of defeat for England away.
