In a thrilling encounter at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Spain emerged victorious over France with a 2-1 win, largely due to the exceptional performance of young talent Lamine Yamal.
France set the tone for the match through Kolo Muani’s goal in the 8th minute with a powerful header thanks to an assist from Kylian Mbappe.
Spain’s high-energy approach helped them answer back with Yamal’s screamer at the 21st minute.
In the second half, Yamal’s influence on the game grew even stronger. His relentless energy and skillful dribbling created numerous opportunities for Spain. Minutes later, Spain took the lead through Dan Olmo’s shot on target deflected by Kounde after a assault on France’s defence.
The French team’s attempts to find a late equalizer were consistently thwarted by Spain’s solid defensive setup and Yamal’s continuous threat on the counter.
With this victory, Spain advances to the UEFA EURO 2024 final, where they will face the winner of the semifinal between Italy and Germany.
