Germany at Euro 2024 live: goals, results and data

It’s an attacking game, but also a tense defensive one. Referee Anthony Taylor has booked three players with yellow cards in the first 30 minutes. Two German defenders, Rudiger and Raum, and Spanish defender Le Normand. Spain also called for a card for Kroos for the tackle in which he injured Pedri.

Here’s how Havertz converted Germany’s best chance

Minute 25. The score is still 0-0, but neither Spain nor Germany are speculating. Both teams are playing vertically and trying to reach the opponent’s area. Spain tried several long-range shots, while the Germans tried several central shots into the penalty area, but did not find a striker, except for the one that Kai Havertz hit with little force into the hands of Unai Simon. Germany had the most obvious chance.

Spain showed the best performance of the match in the first minute. Both teams tried to take control of the game afterwards, but it was Spain who had more verticality, managing to take a good free-kick from the front after a tackle by Rudiger, for which he was booked.

German midfielder Toni Kroos stopped a Spanish counterattack with a shot towards Pedri, which resulted in the Spanish team being booked. The German was not booked while the Canary was on the grass hurting. In the subsequent play, Pedri went to the ground in pain and was replaced by Dani Olmo.

The picture shows the moment when Kroos knocks down Pedri.

Pedri had his first chance to play for Spain. Nico Williams played the ball into Morata’s box. He played short to Pedri and the midfielder fired home, but his shot fell into Neuer’s hands.

Germany take the centre. Roll the ball. The Euro 2024 quarter-finals begin.

The headlines from Spain are already picking up steam. Rodri, in the centre of the image, is the team’s mainstay in creating and containing. He scored the goal that started the comeback against Georgia in the last 16.

21-year-old German midfielder Jamal Musiala is the tournament’s top scorer with three goals. He is one of the tournament’s stars and is expected to be the star of the match against Spain.

Spain and Germany have just announced their squads for the match.

Spain start with their usual eleven, the same as those who played against Georgia and in the first two group games: Unai Simon in goal. Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte and Cucurella in defence. Rodri, Fabian and Pedri in midfield. Lamine Jamal, Nico Willians and Morata in attack.

Germany enter with two substitutions compared to the eleven they played with in the last 16 against Denmark. Tach and Sane are new in place of Schlotterbeck and Andric.
Neuer as goalkeeper. Kimmich, Rudiger, Tach and Raum in defence. Can, Kroos, Sane, Gundogan and Musiala in midfield. Havertz up.

Spain have won all their matches in the championship so far. They have won three in the group stage, and in the second round they had a resounding victory over Georgia, overcoming an initial goal deficit to win four games to one. The team coached by Luis de la Fuente has shown a very solid performance in all matches, thanks to the high level of players such as Rodri (1 goal) and Fabián (2 goals and 2 assists), the leaders of the Spanish midfield in creation and containment, Cucurella, the left-back who has become one of the flagships of the national team’s defense, and the attacking duo of Nico Williams (1 goal and 1 assist) and Lamin Yamal (2 assists), who have printed the Spanish team with flow, electricity and audacity.

Germany, for their part, are another unbeatable team. In their case, they did not achieve a complete victory, as they drew with Switzerland on the third group day. However, the Mannschaft showed excellent team attacking play. The German team is full of stars who are performing well. The German midfield is intimidating with players like veterans Ilkay Gundogan and Toni Kroos or young Jamal Musiala, who became one of the sensations of the tournament after becoming the tournament’s top scorer with three goals. In the center of defense, they have Antonio Rüdiger, the second player in the tournament in terms of goals saved, 33, and in attack, Kai Havertz and Niklas Füllkrug have two goals each.

Spain and Germany are competing against each other as the two favourite teams in this Eurocup. They are supported by the performances shown and the data.
