Posted July 8, 20242 yr The first semi-final sees the tournament favourites Spain take on France at the Allianz Arena, Munich. For Spain it took an 119th minute goal in extra time to break the hosts hearts. For France they need penalties to get past Portugal in what was an drab match. How do we see this one going?

July 9, 20242 yr Think Spain will win this for some reason! they will certainly go into the game as favourites - something you probably wouldn't have expected going into the tournament! I think Spain will win but I also expect a marked improvement on France's last five borefests

July 9, 20242 yr Well that was quick! I didn't have the sound on so thought it had hit the side netting until the score changed.
July 9, 20242 yr Now that was a cracking goal - and Yamal finally gets his youngest goalcorer record!
July 9, 20242 yr Yamal finally scores! That will be the young player of the tournament award wrapped up for him
