The European football championship in Germany continues on Tuesday with the semi-finals. The Spanish national team, which is on its way to its record-breaking fourth triumph, will compete against the French team on Tuesday at 21:00, which would overtake Spain and Germany at the top of the ranking with its third gold medal.
Of the two football superpowers, Spain has so far clearly delivered what was expected, and even the national team with the national team captain who came from the reserves and only 2-3 world class players overachieved. So far, they have won all five of their matches (against the Germans in extra time), they have scored the most goals, 11 (tied with the Germans), they have attempted the most shots, 102, and they are also in the lead in the number of recovered balls (230) . Based on these data, it can be stated that the Spanish team is at the highest level both in defense and attack.
Another serious test of strength awaits the Spaniards, as France has won only two matches so far, but conceded only one goal in five matches (Lewandowski scored from the penalty spot). Although the team plays boringly, it cannot be said that they do not try to lead attacks. In this statistic, they are barely behind the Spaniards. The Griezmanns have so far started 295 times towards the goal of their opponents, while their semi-final rivals attacked 312 times. With this, the two national teams are in third and fourth place in the overall ranking, behind the Portuguese and the Germans. What is a much bigger problem, however, is the exploitation of situations, since so far neither Mbappé nor his teammates have found their goal-scoring shoes, and based on the quarter-final win against the Portuguese in the penalty shootout, it doesn't even appear that any of the French attackers will be able to get into shape, writes ujszo.com .
