UEFA Nations League League A preparations

Overview

National football teams continue preparations for the UEFA Nations League League A fixtures. In Greece, AEK Athens secured a 2-1 away victory against Volos in the fifth round of the Super League, driven by two goals from Luka Jović. The Serbian striker scored a penalty in the 61st minute and a header in the 88th minute to secure the win after Volos had equalized late in the match. This win brings AEK to 11 points after five rounds. However, the match was marked by controversy, as AEK coach Marko Nikolić and club officials expressed strong dissatisfaction with a penalty awarded during the game, calling it ‘an injustice to the sport.’ Regarding international rosters, Greece coach Ivan Jovanovic has finalized his squad for upcoming matches against Serbia, Germany, and the Netherlands. Jovanovic noted the difficulty of the schedule, which includes four matches in less than two weeks, forcing a focus on tactical analysis over physical training. The selection maintains several absences, including Lazaros Rota and Tasos Bakasetas, while featuring the return of Manolis Saliakas and the inclusion of Charalampos Kostoulas and Konstantinos Karetsas. Jovanovic has set the primary goal of maintaining the team's position in League A following their first appearance in the top tier. Serbia has received a boost as striker Dušan Tadić confirmed his return to the national team at the request of manager Veljko Paunović, stating he wishes to provide experience to the squad. Serbian player Mihajlo Cvetković has also expressed excitement regarding his involvement in national team preparations. Croatia is preparing for a demanding schedule under manager Slaven Bilić, facing the Czech Republic, Spain, and England. Bilić has noted squad changes necessitated by injuries to Josip Juranović and Martin Erlić, while welcoming Lovro Majer back to the roster and highlighting the emergence of young talent Luka Vušković.
