On July 9, at the stadium in Munich, Spain and France will face off in the Euro 2024 semifinals. Spain has been the tournament's biggest revelation in terms of spectacular play. Under Luis de la Fuente, they have showcased fast-paced, attacking football, with a focus on their wingers. Spain breezed through the group stage, starting with a commanding 3-0 win over Croatia, followed by a narrow 1-0 victory against Italy, and a 1-0 win over Albania with their reserve squad.

In the Round of 16, Spain faced Georgia, who sensationally opened the scoring with an own goal by Le Normand. However, Spain equalized before halftime through Rodri, and then dominated the second half with goals from Ruiz, Williams, and Olmo, securing a 4-1 victory. In the quarterfinals, Spain faced Germany in a highly anticipated match. Despite early tension and an injury to Pedri, Spain took the lead through Dani Olmo, only for Germany to equalize late in the game. In extra time, Mikel Merino's header sent Spain to the semifinals with a 2-1 win.

France, one of the tournament's favorites, had a mixed group stage. They narrowly beat Austria thanks to an own goal but suffered from an injury to Kylian Mbappe. They then drew 0-0 with the Netherlands and finished with a 1-1 draw against Poland. In the Round of 16, France struggled to break down Belgium, eventually winning 1-0 due to an own goal. The quarterfinal against Portugal ended in a goalless draw, with France prevailing 5-3 in the penalty shootout.

Spain's dynamic wing play and solid central midfield make them favorites for the final. However, if France can neutralize Spain's young talents, the match could go into extra time or penalties, where anything can happen. The wait won't be long to see who will advance.

• Spain win: 2.64
• Draw: 2.90
