Dear fans and friends, the semi-finals of the European Championship have been announced, which are Spain, France, England and the Netherlands. These teams are all giants among the giants, and they are all very strong. According to the schedule, the first semi-final will be played at 3 a.m. Beijing time on July 10, against Spain and France. Can't wait for the big guys? This game is undoubtedly one of the highlights of this European Cup, let's talk about what these giants have to watch today.
"Can Spain, which has had a smooth journey, continue to soar?"
Let's start with the Spanish team. This team went from the group stage to the round of 16, then to the top 8, and then to the top 4, all the way through the test, and the record is very strong. Spain won all three games in the group stage, and then they were also invincible in the knockout round, not stumbling like France, England and the Netherlands at all. It is impressive to know that Spain is the only team to win all of them in this European Championship.
"Can France break the Spanish curse?"
Let's take a look at the French team, although it is also a giant, but this time the performance is always unsatisfactory. Don't look at the French team all the way to the semi-finals, it depends on luck more than strength. In the first five games, France's attacking line continued to be sluggish, scoring just one penalty and two own goals. Mbappe, Muani, Dembele and other strikers are all big names, but they don't get anything. In the next semi-finals, it is really a big question mark whether these French forwards can break out in the face of Spain's backline.
"The suspense of the showdown between the giants: the contest of value and strength"
Speaking of the highlights of this game, we have to mention the total value of these two teams. According to the latest statistics, the Spanish team is worth 966 million euros, or about 7.6 billion yuan, while the French team is worth 1.23 billion euros, or about 9.7 billion yuan. The total value of the two teams is as high as 17.3 billion yuan, which is a veritable showdown of giants. A high value doesn't mean you can win, but this game is destined to be a priceless matchup.
"Data explained: Spain's road to victory"
Let's take a closer look at Spain's path to victory. In the group stage, Spain defeated Croatia 3-0, Italy 1-0 and Albania 1-0. Entering the knockout round, he reversed Georgia 4-1 in the 1/8 finals and defeated Germany 2-1 in the 1/4 finals. Spain has come all the way and every game has been incredible. Especially against Germany, substitute Olmo came on for Pedri, contributing one goal and one assist, single-handedly helping Spain eliminate Germany. This Spanish team is not only strong, but the substitutes are also top-notch.
"France's Fight Back: Can the Silence Be Broken?"
France, on the other hand, scored just one penalty in their first five games, plus two own goals to advance to the semi-finals, without scoring a single goal. Mbappe, Muani and Dembele have not won anything, and one can't help but wonder if they will still find their form in the semi-finals. Whether France's attacking line can explode against Spain became a major suspense in the game. If France's strikers continue to be dumbfounded, the probability of Spain sending France home will increase dramatically.
"Fans are hot: who will have the last laugh?"
As the game approached, the discussion among the fans became more and more heated. Some believe that Spain will continue to march high and send France home; There are also those who firmly believe that France will break out at a critical moment and succeed in counterattacking. On social media, predictions and analyses about this match are endless. Regardless of the outcome, this match is destined to become a classic battle of this European Cup. It is worth mentioning that this Spanish team is not only strong, but also has a storm of youth. Yamal and Nico Williams are two wingers who keep the team flying on the wings, and if the players stay fit, they can play in three or four more European Championships. The young Spanish team has a promising future ahead of them.
"Tactical innovation in Spain: from passing to attacking efficiently"
Spain's performance at this European Championship is inseparable from their tactical innovation. Once upon a time, Spain were known for their pass-and-possession style, but this tournament they have abandoned ineffective ground passing in favour of a more efficient attacking approach. This was undoubtedly a bold attempt, and such a change proved to be a success.
The wings of Yamal and Nico Williams combined to make Spain's attack more three-dimensional. The two young wingers are fast and creative, and their performances have given Spain a boost in attack. Such tactical adjustments also allow the team to be more comfortable in the face of different opponents.
"France's problem: the link between midfield and striker"
The problem for France is not only the sluggishness of the forward line, but also the link between the midfield and the forward. Although N'Golo Kante and Paul Pogba are unquestionable in midfield, their links with the forward line have not been at their best. The lack of organization in the midfield has made the forwards not get enough support, which has become an important reason for the "dumb fire".
This was especially evident in the matches against England and the Netherlands. France do not dominate possession and are often isolated once they enter the opposition's defensive zone. How to solve the problem of the connection between the midfield and the striker will be the key to whether France can make a difference in the semi-finals.
"Voices of the fans: what to expect from tactics and players"
The fans were looking forward to the game and everyone expressed their opinions. Some people think that Spain's tactical adjustments are masterful, and the performance of the young players is even more surprising; There are also high hopes for the French team, hoping that they can find their form in key games, after all, the strength of the French team on paper is there. On social media, many fans are talking about the tactical play of the two teams. Some fans said: "Spain is really new this time, the young players are so powerful!" ”； There are also supporters of the French team who said: "Don't look at France's current state, there are always miracles at critical moments!" ”
"Data comparison: the all-round PK between Spain and France"
In addition to the value, the comparison of the two teams in various statistics is also the focus of fans. According to statistics, Spain has an all-round advantage in attacking statistics, with higher goals per game, shots on goal and possession than France. Defensively, Spain have also conceded fewer goals than France, which shows that they are not only sharp in attack, but also quite solid defensively.
France are slightly inferior in stats, but they often exceed expectations in key matches. In particular, goalkeeper Lloris played bravely, saving the team from danger many times. The comparison of the data of the two teams indicates that this will be a wonderful matchup with both offense and defense.
"The suspense of the game: who will make it to the final?"
The suspense of this game is not only about the victory or defeat of both teams, but also about the future of the players. For Spain's young players, this is a great opportunity for them to prove themselves; For France's veterans, this may be their last chance to challenge for the European Championship.
