The final four teams—Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands—are now preparing to fight for a spot in the final at Berlin’s Olympiastadion on Sunday, July 14.
Starting on Tuesday, July 9, the semi-finals will feature Spain and France. Both teams have demonstrated exceptional performance throughout the campaign, which guarantees a thrilling encounter in this eagerly anticipated match.
Spain, which has already easily defeated Georgia in the round of 16 and narrowly defeated Germany 2-1 in the quarter-finals, will endeavor to maintain their dominant performance.
France, on the other hand, secured a 1-0 victory over Belgium and maintained their composure to prevail on penalties against Portugal in the quarterfinals.
On Wednesday, July 10, England will take on the Netherlands in the second semi-final. A dramatic penalty shootout victory over Switzerland in Düsseldorf secured England’s place in the final four.
The encounter concluded with a 1-1 score after extra time, as Bukayo Saka’s equalizer cancelled out Breel Embolo’s opener. Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham, Saka, Ivan Toney, and Trent Alexander-Arnold were able to score all five of England’s penalties.
Southgate took pride in the team, asserting, “We have won three of the four penalty shootouts.” For the one we lost, we were crucified; however, it is outcome-driven.
By defeating Turkey 2-1 in Berlin, the Netherlands demonstrated their resilient and high-quality play, thereby advancing to the semi-finals. Their strength and determination were on full display during their voyage, which culminated in a 3-0 result over Romania in the round of 16.
Winners of these semi-final matches will advance to the final, which is scheduled to occur in Berlin on Sunday, July 14, at 21:00.
