Gavi, a midfielder for Spain, delighted as his team qualified for EURO 2024.
A goal by Gavi early in the second half in Oslo sealed all three points for La Roja and guaranteed Luis de la Fuente’s squad a spot in next summer’s World Cup in Germany.
The midfielder for Barcelona said they put in a lot of work, but were rewarded handsomely. I’m quite delighted with the result,” he stated after the game. Our efforts on the field were rewarded with a victory.
We’ve been on a tremendous winning streak. We’re not naive; Norway is a dangerous opponent in their stadium.
Two automatic qualifying berths have been secured by Spain and Scotland. Norway can no longer make it through the first round without first going through the play-offs. Meanwhile, La Roja will play the two worst teams in the group (Cyprus and Georgia) in its final two qualifying matches.
Even though Norway is home to two world-class players (Martin Odegaard and Erling Haaland), the country is still a relative unknown at international competitions.
