Uronen featured from the start in Finland’s emphatic 6-0 win over San Marino in Group H. The left-back was substituted at half time with his side 2-0 up thanks to goals from Rangers’ Glen Kamara (16’) and KS Cracovia’s Benjamin Källman (39’). After the break, Daniel Hakans of Vålerenga scored a quick-fire hat-trick to make it 5-0 (65’, 72’, 74’), before former Schalker Teemu Pukki added a sixth. After four games, Finland sit top of Group H on nine points.

Turkey are top of Group D after also picking up nine points from their first four qualifiers. Stefan Kuntz’s men eased to a comfortable 2-0 win over Wales thanks to goals from Ümraniyespor’s Umut Nayir (72’) and Fenerbahçe’s Arda Güler (80’). Kenan Karaman didn’t feature.
