International: Olsen and Kolarov enjoy Nations League promotions


Robin Olsen added yet another clean sheet to his collection this season as Sweden secured the 2-0 win over Russia they needed to secure promotion to the top tier of the Nations League.

Needing all three points to leapfrog this summer's World Cup hosts a clinch victory in their group, Olsen was a wall at the back - as Victor Lindelof and Marcus Berg scored either side of half-time to confirm the victory.

Elsewhere on Tuesday night, Aleksandar Kolarov was an unused substitute as Serbia clinched their own promotion with an emphatic 4-1 win over Lithuania.

Steven Nzonzi was a late introduction in France's 1-0 win over Uruguay - as Olivier Giroud scored the only goal of the game.

Finally, Cengiz Under played all 90 minutes in Turkey's 0-0 draw with Ukraine.
