As the Euro 2024 semifinals approach, Spain and France are gearing up for an exciting match. Spain, managed by Luis de la Fuente, has been a standout team in the tournament, topping Group B and winning all their group matches. They secured a spot in the semifinals with a 2-1 victory over hosts Germany in extra time.

On the other hand, France, led by Didier Deschamps, had a tougher journey to the semifinals, finishing second in Group D. They had to rely on an own goal to beat Belgium in the Round of 16 and won against Portugal in a penalty shootout in the quarterfinals.

This semifinal clash will be the first meeting between Spain and France in the European Championship since 2012, where Spain eventually defended their European crown.
