Friday could hardly have gone any better for Eintracht’s summer signing Kristijan Jakic, who was handed his senior international debut in the 84th minute of Croatia’s 3-0 victory over Cyprus. The win keeps Croatia top of World Cup qualifying Group H.
Norway also remain well positioned to secure a place at the tournament in Qatar after drawing 1-1 with Turkey, who stay two points behind the second-placed Scandinavians in Group G. Eintracht’s Norwegian winger Jens Petter Hauge started on the right flank before being taken off in the 75th minute.
Youngsters victorious
Fabio Blanco Gómez played the full 90 minutes as Spain’s U18s cruised to a 3-0 win over their Turkish counterparts, while Enrique Herrero García helped the Spanish U17 side to a 2-0 triumph against the Netherlands.
