On Saturday, nine more 2018 World Cup qualifying matches were played in the European zone. All football fans' eyes were on the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium in Madrid, where the Spanish national team met Italy. Julen Lopetegui's players did not leave any hope for the guests - they achieved a victory with a score of 3-0. In the match, not only shining with their technical abilities against the opponents, but also scoring excellent goals, was Isco. In the 14th minute, the "Real" midfielder scored a great penalty kick to put the Spaniards ahead, and in the 40th minute, he forced the Italians to get the ball out of their goal for the second time with a long-range shot. In the second half, the Spaniards had many more opportunities to score, but only Alvaro Morata managed to score another goal - he scored in the 77th minute. At the very end of the match, the legendary David Villa, who returned to the national team after a long break, also appeared on the pitch. Other matches ended with victories for Albania, Finland, Serbia, Macedonia, Ukraine, and Wales. The national teams of Georgia and Ireland drew, while the match between Croatia and Kosovo was not completed due to poor weather conditions. All results: Spain 3 - 0 Italy Albania 2 - 0 Liechtenstein Finland 1 - 0 Iceland Georgia 1 - 1 Ireland Croatia 0 - 0 Kosovo (Match was interrupted in the 26th minute) Israel 0 - 1 Macedonia Ukraine 2 - 0 Turkey Wales 1 - 0 Austria
