Brian Laudrup reckons Scotland boss Steve Clarke must mastermind a way to stop Alejandro Balde - despite conceding Spain are yet to hit top form under Luis de la Fuente.

They got off to the perfect start by seeing off Norway in a comfortable 3-0 victory as they look to rebuild the European heavyweights into contenders for the tournament in Germany.
