⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers➡Group Stage➡1/8➡QF➡HF➡FINAL

[ajiz138]

England have already played two rounds of extra time in the Round of 16 and Quarter Finals against Slovakia and Switzerland. I think the players of England might experience more fatigue than the players of Netherlands for their upcoming match today but I guess England are still a better team than Netherlands and they should be able to clear this last hurdle and progress to the finals to play against Spain.

I don't think it will be the third time for England to go to extra time because it's really tiring for the players, preparations may have been made now we know England are a bit boring in the game I hope this time it's a little different where the audience will be fascinated.

Whoever qualifies for the final against Spain is a tough opponent waiting, for me the Netherlands or England looking at the game it will be difficult to face Spain this is just a theory that I give as an illustration, but still any game can happen in the final later.

Let's go! Spain - France game is about to start and I think this is going to be much more attracting than the other semi finals matchup.    Because Spain are one of the teams with the most impressive football so far.  

France are a really interesting team. While not conceding many goals they haven't scored that many either. If Spain manage to play against them in the same way they did against Germany then I expect them to be more likely to win.

Germany were playing an attacking game of course. France like to play a controlled game rather than that. So I really wonder what kind of a game we are going to watch. I'm still favouring Spain to win by penalties at worst...

So, analyzing the match with all the facts, I have to say that I was surprised by France, regardless of the result.
I'll explain why, I had seen the French team start really very slowly, and let's say they started to work well in the last two games.
Regardless of the result, this is important for the future world championship to understand where the team is at and what needs to be fixed.

Second semi final kicks off in just over 3 hours. Spain await the winner of Englands vs Netherlands in the final.

I actually think England might run out of luck here. They haven’t been able to beat Slovakia or Switzerland in normal time, I think they get punished by a better team tonight.

Despite the strong quality in the England team, they've actually haven't been entertaining in the ongoing UEFA Euros Championship and against a brilliant Netherlands team that i personally think have been more impressive, winning the semi finals game tonight will be a very difficult task for England. The England team have struggled to win their games more than the Netherlands which is why they've already played additional 30 minutes in two of their two games in the knockout stages and should they fail to win against the Netherlands tonight on normal time, winning the game in the extra time or during the penalty shootout might not happen.
The manager of the Dutch national team Ronald Koeman have improved the performance of his team since he took over and is on mission to help them win a major tournament which is why I expect nothing but the best from the team tonight against England

I agree with you. England have narrowly escaped several stages with penalties and Netherlands have won many matches without a penalty shootout which shows that they are use to scoring goals.

England is similar to France this year's Euro, they only managed to qualify with penalties without the ability of scoring goals easily. Their fate will be the same as France. We don't need a dull finals.

[Majestic-milf]

 For me, England will have to bring out their best tonight if they want to play Spain in the finals because Netherlands in this tournament have been stubborn and resilient too. They have been scoring goals in their games and there hasn't been a dull moment with them. Ordinarily, they aren't any match for England but with the way Southgate's boys have been playing in this competition, it gives any team the hope that they can be beaten.
 The last time these two met in 2019 in the UEFA nations league game, Netherlands won 3-1 and strengthened by the fact that in their h2h, Netherlands have more wins than England, Koeman's boys will want to show their prowess again but I don't think the English will sit with their hands folded and let the Orange boys take center stage, especially as this is a critical time of the tournament.
The thing there is will Gareth Southgate employ the arsenal that hasn't been touched in this competition or will he stick with his old ways and expect magic to happen?

Congratulations to Spain for the victory to made it to final stage, because I thought France coach will use all those squads to beat Spain with many goals in the semi-final stage, but it was a surprised that the game ended up 2:1 for the favor of Spain. I know France will surely regret for their mistakes in this semi-final stage, because they have the opportunity to lead that semi-final stage but they missed their opportunity that gave Spain the boldness to secured 2 goals in the first half.

I actually think England might run out of luck here. They haven’t been able to beat Slovakia or Switzerland in normal time, I think they get punished by a better team tonight.

Since they have not been able to break the record to beat Switzerland, I guess they will going to break the record today with 2:1 to beat Switzerland which is my prediction in today game because the squads am seeing among the England, make me to believe that Switzerland team will struggle to secure 1 goal at the end of the game because Spain and England will be the teams to meet in the final stage.

Spain defeated France 2-1, becoming the first team to reach the Euro 2024 final. In the semifinal match, France took an early lead with Kolo Muani in the 9th minute, but Spain equalized when 16-year-old Lamine Yamal scored in the 21st minute. Just four minutes later, Dani Olmo secured Spain’s place in the final of Euro 2024 with another goal. While I can’t say I was disappointed that France was eliminated due to their defensive style of play, I was pleased to see Spain advance with their offensive gameplay and exciting matches. As for Lamine Yamal, who is only 16 years old, words fall short in describing his talent. Also Lamine Yamal has become the youngest goal scorer in the tournament’s history.

They better do talking about England because all they have been doing since the beginning of this tournament is playing below expectation and I wanted England to show the other nations how fully prepared the are coming into this competition but after their first leg I changed my mind on seeing them as one of the best. Going head to head against a team that is the same as them is not going to be fun or interesting base on how both teams have been managing each game in this competition, judging by past meetings I think Netherlands might get a win in this game because the Orange boys have woken up a bit more than the English guys.
Southgate is never going to change in any way, this is not the moment for him to change tactics or players to start, it is too late for that, I just feel for those guys who are fresh to turn things around for England that Southgate have been keeping on the bench for long. If England loses tonight then the 3rd place they're not seeing it, France will grab that position but until then let's see what the 3 Lions have for us tonight and I hope it will be something we haven't seen from them in this tournament.

[giammangiato]

I never expected Spain to remain down for so long and though Randall Kolo Muani's 8' goal kind of put Spain on edge, Yamal's 21' equalizer set them at ease and as if that wasn't enough, Olmo had to add more salt to the injury France. It's safe to say we had an entertaining first half in which Spain undoubtedly showed dominance. Since this competition started, they have been the only team to win straight five and of this ends like this, it will be six wins with goals to booth.
 Didier Deschamps will see his dream of winning the competition as a player and a coach slowly fizzle away if Spain add more fire to their play and to be honest, they don't relent even though they are on the winning side and that's a mentality La Fuentes has imparted in his boys.

A truly exciting match, regardless of who won or lost, it was an exceptional and very entertaining match.
I finally saw a match worthy of a European Championship, worthy of being seen and I repeat, I enjoyed it completely.
I have to say thanks to both France and Spain.

[Lidger]

In rhythm Spain were ahead of France before full time and they eventually secured the final with the lead. France attacked as much as Spain but could not attack as much. The way Spain counter-attacked as well as the way they delivered the right ball, but France couldn't deliver the ball.  Mbappe had two early chances but couldn't finish brilliantly. 

All the fans are waiting for the first finalist of the tournament Spain and the second final team because today there is a semi final match between Netherlands and England the winner of this match will fight against Spain in the final. 

In today's match, there is no chance for England or Netherlands to lead anyone because any team can win here.

Both England and the Netherlands have not been able to show consistency at Euro 2024 even though they have reached the semifinals. I think both teams have the same chance of advancing to the final round, only the hard work and ingenuity of the players can maximize their chances of becoming the winner. England may be the favorite because their squad is even, but Southgate is always experimenting, so England players have difficulty developing their game. Meanwhile, the Netherlands will play Spartan even though the performance of their attack line has not been satisfactory, but I am sure Koeman will not make any mistakes in managing his troops' play.

[Volgastallion]

I was not expecting 3 goals in the first half between Spain and France at all, they were very good defense team indeed France was the best team until this game in defense only allowing one goal. The second time was more like the normal France game and ended up with no goals for both teams, France offensive was really a mess in this tournament and i dont know why because they have super players in that positions.

Fact: many doubted England because their wins were not easy and always went to penalties or extra time wins, I don't think England will have the same luck for the 3rd time. Hahaha

However England will apply the same strategy this won't be any change for Southgate, whereas France's fate ended tragically with their defeat, and we will watch England with Netherlands, hopefully there will be another surprise.

I think England will make it through to the final, they're pretty much underperforming especially from the high expectations we had on their squad depths, who individually did remarkably in their various club but no body quite understands while they still perform this poorly.
Ironic England performance as turned them to the Underdog here, while this might just be their worst performance in a tournament since I can remember.

In the first semi-final of the Euro championship. French Vs Spain. Spain won this match 2-1 goal. At the beginning of the match did not get a goal after several attacks.  In the nine minutes of the match, Colo muani scored a header to ahead of Franch. A  goal behind Spain finishes the game very well. This match Lamin Yeamal takes the spotlight himself. Become the youngest footballer of Euro history to score a goal in the semi-final. Olemar also scored a goal. Mbappe tried to prevent his side from losing but they lost Spain organized football, especially Lamin Yeamal.

Spain were very promising and they played well with their young players to defeat one of the favorites to win the tournament which is France; it was a well deserve win for Spain because they really played well and deserve to be in the finals.

England today will have to do something entirely different from what they have been doing if they really wants to make it to the finals because if they played as they used to play against Slovakia and Switzerland, they might run out of luck today because Netherlands have good defense and also good attackers that can convert almost all the chances they will create, the only problem in the team is their midfield.

On the other hand, I am not expecting the game to progress to the extra time because I think England can do something this time because Southgate will make corrections from his past mistakes and will want to win this title just as Spain is hoping to win it.

Spain VS England in the finals will be more interesting to watch.

There is actually a different vibe when a good team is playing against another good team. The experience will be quite different from when a good team is playing an average team. It could be that England must have in one way or the other on directed Slovakia and Switzerland, now that they know that Netherland is a better team they would also step up their play. Anything that has a advantage also has an advantage, England playing extra time in two of their last matches will definitely do it up to fatigue but it also has given them enough experience on how to play extra time matches.

Spain are the favorite to lift this year euro competition, but they will find it difficult if the eventually meet England at the finals.

Even though you spelled all the names wrong, what you said is generally correct France took the lead, but when the opponent is Spain, you have to be very careful. Spain took the lead with 2 goals and maintained it throughout the match. Thanks to their intense play and ball retention in the defense and midfield areas, they managed to maintain their advantage until the end of the match. I hope the Netherlands-England match will also be enjoyable. I think this match will be a draw in normal time.

Since the start of the group stage I have noticed Spain's impressive game they beat 2 strong teams such as Italy and Germany to reach the semi-finals then beat France and now Spain is the main candidate to win the trophy. We are still waiting for Spain opponent in the final whether England or Netherlands, what's clear is that whoever goes to the final, in my opinion, Spain is still better on all sides. The possibility of bad luck that could defeat Spain. By the way Cody Gakpo and Dani Olmo are competing for the golden boot, these two players still have the opportunity to score more goals because they still have 1-2 matches left but I favor Dani Olmo to win it.
