Marc Casadó played his first official match with the Spanish senior team on Friday at the Parken in Copenhagen against Denmark (1-2). The FC Barcelona midfielder came on in the 70th minute for Martín Zubimendi, who asked for the change after feeling a puncture in his left abductor that, in principle, would not be serious.

Spain had previously taken the lead thanks to goals from Mikel Oyarzabal and Ayoze Pérez.
