Spain and France are both one game away from the Euro 2024 final ahead of Tuesday’s last-four clash. #SpainFranceEuro2024 The pair head to Munich in contrasting form but with the same target in mind. Spain France Euro2024 rivalry is intense, with both teams showcasing top-notch performances throughout the tournament.
Luis de la Fuente’s side are the only team to have triumphed in all five matches of this tournament in Germany, edging past Julian Nagelsmann’s hosts in the quarter-finals with a 2-1 extra-time victory.
Dani Olmo opened the scoring early in the second half before a late Florian Wirtz equaliser forced extra time, only for Mikel Merino to prove the unlikely hero with his 119th-minute headed winner.
That Merino magic snatched a fifth straight win for La Roja, though no team in European Championship history has won six matches in a single tournament and no side has ever triumphed in six Euro games in a row. #SpainFranceEuro2024
France boss Didier Deschamps will be well aware that De la Fuente’s men are the form side, having won 15 of their 19 matches since the start of 2023. In that period, Spain’s 79% win rate is the best of any European nation.
Inspired by the likes of wing wizards Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, Spain have also won their last seven games in a row, last winning more consecutively between June 2009 and June 2010 (12).
It predicts a tightly contested battle with implications for the tournament’s outcome. Spain France Euro2024 enthusiasts eagerly await this high-stakes clash between football powerhouses.
