Germany failed to avenge their previous defeat against Greece, settling for a goalless 0–0 draw in Thessaloniki, while Portugal sustained their flawless Nations League campaign with a 2–1 victory over Norway in Matchday 4.
Jürgen Klopp’s side struggled to dismantle Greece’s resolute defensive structure throughout the match. As a result, Germany collected just one point across their two meetings with the Greeks, who had previously claimed a historic 1–0 win in Augsburg—their first-ever victory over the four-time world champions.
In Group 4, Norway took the lead through Kristoffer Ajer before João Cancelo struck a quick equalizer for Portugal. Gonçalo Ramos then turned in the winning goal in the second half, set up by João Félix, securing a 2–1 victory for the defending champions and repeating their previous scoreline against the Scandinavian side.
Meanwhile, the Netherlands climbed to the top of Group 2 following a 2–1 home win against Serbia. Teun Koopmeiners and Joshua Zirkzee found the net for the hosts, while Mihajlo Cvetković scored the sole goal for the visitors.
The result preserved Xavi Hernández’s unbeaten start as Dutch head coach, registering two wins and two draws across his opening four matches against Germany, Greece, and Serbia (twice).
The Netherlands lead Group 2 with 8 points, ahead of second-placed Greece on goal difference. Germany sit third with 5 points, while Serbia remain bottom without a point.
In Group 4, Portugal remain clear at the top with a maximum 12 points from four consecutive victories, securing early qualification for the quarterfinals. Denmark follow in second with 6 points, while Wales and Norway trail with 3 points each.
