Spain targets another trophy

» The top leagues are taking a short holiday as the soccer spotlight switches to international football with World Cup qualifiers in all FIFA regions and the two-legged quarter-finals of the UEFA Nations League - so there's plenty of action to keep you entertained through the forthcoming long weekend, especially on Sunday, and great chances to win piles of cash with two carryover TAB soccer pools and four cash-added pools!

The Nations League in Europe has been expanded in its fourth edition to include a quarter-final stage and promotion-relegation playoffs to add extra spice to the competition.

The top two finishers in the four A-level groups now go in search of the trophy as holders Spain look to get past the Netherlands in defense of their trophy, while Croatia, runners-up in the last Nations League, take on France.

The other quarter-final ties see Italy against Germany and Denmark taking on Portugal.

The first-leg ties are all tomorrow with the return fixtures on Sunday and the winners then advance to the final tournament in June.
