This game is like the final.
But they shouldn't be meeting so soon. I don't know what happened but the two sides were so unbalanced, this 3rd place team is stupid
Come on, Germany is totally overrated. They will Go down easily.
@@superboykevrolf3811
Bait, Bait, Bait 😂
@@superboykevrolf3811 It was not so easy, you clown.
120 minutes gametime and 5 spanish players got yellow cards, Carvajal a red card
Crazy how the narratives pre-tournament versus now have changed.
Indeed wonder if Merson will be shocked if England don't win it
@@onaleronazikhali2518 bro... Paul Merson is dead...
@@ethandavis961 Alive and well actually...
It’s not crazy at all, Literally every Euro and World Cup it’s happened
People who watch La Liga are not surprised that Nico is this good, also Cucurella was a hot prospect in his youth days at Barca, he improved a lot at Getafe and was excellent at Brighton. To judge any player for their Chelsea performance is a dumb take but not a surprise coming out from a clown Frank Lebeouf and the majority of these pundits who don’t watch any football outside of the premier league.
Exactly .if you're not good then you're not good . Chelsea is a hit mess changing coach every year .who from chelsea you can say has been consistent?
@@curtischarles5299 Only cole palmer but apart from that not really. I'm a chelsea fan but I do rate Cucurella. With every passing game he is making Gary Neville eat his words when he said he will hold Spain back
@@rohithraman6488 exactly. Cole palmer alone . But I dont think it's the players .its management who are messing things up at Chelsea. So it's obvious players will be inconsistent with all these changes with coaches .
Home crowd advantage is big in knockout football . Germany has a huge advantage over Spain. .expect them to win tonight
tell that to 2014 Brazil
@@andrewng5738 thats one extra ordinary outlier game. Not normal
@@Footballfan4224home advantage isn't working on your logic, only 3 teams have got to the final of rhw euros who hosted it and won. Last team who won was france, 40 years ago they hosted and won.
sre clueless about football and also about the words you use
Yea you must be German lol
The final before the final
Nico Williams is the best player in this team. Lamine has been good. But Nico is at another level.
Rodri? Fabian Ruiz?
Take it from a real madrid fan ..lol..of course the barcelona player wont be better .
@@curtischarles5299 From a Manchester United fan, they look about the same to me.
Rodri is head and shoulders above everyone else in that team.
Rodri is the best alongside Pedri.
The English speaking media is completely ignorant. Nothing outside the EPL exists to them. The French guy saying he didn’t see Nico Williams coming, he obviously never watches La liga, and Steve Mac talking about Bilbao not having money. Bilbao pays their players really really well they have plenty of cash. The reason that cash doesn’t translate to “winning” teams is because of their only basque player policy. Embarrassing for these people to be “experts”
Take no offence. You have to understand that two of the panel are English with the education level of pond algae and the cultural awareness of a donkey.
You nailed it❤
🤡🤡🤡🤡 so what makes YOU think the Spanish media isn’t the same?? Because they are .. the only thing that exists to them is La Liga.. all countries are mostly the same 🤡🤡🤡
cry
The stadium of Bilbao is one of the most beautiful I’ve seen
Spain vs Germany is basically Real Madrid vs Manchester City of the Euros. Whoever wins the game will be an outright winner of the entire thing.
I'm rooting for Germany so that we have a possibility of 1974 World Cup Final repeat vs the Netherlands or even all-Berlin Final vs Turkey!
It sounds strange. But England will reach the final this time and win the final, despite their unconvincing performance. They will beat Germany in the final.
This whole tournament is fixed and manipulated by the organizing body and the big nations.
Spain will be forced to deliberately lose to Germany today. Because UEFA will ensure that the host nation, at least, reaches the semi finals of the tournament.
@@hsafootballworld1321 Then, UEFA is basically a corrupt organizations right, like FIFA? I saw how Qatar had won the Asian Cup by paying their referees for tough matches, most notably the Asian Cup Final vs Jordan. That's hillarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂
So, we can get kane winning trophy before gta 6 😮@@hsafootballworld1321
This will be a cracker. Spain have been by far the best team at this Tournament
Nah. Germans are the best.
Saying by far is a crazy statement, Germany have been wonderful
Germany is good but this Spain is amazing
By far the best team?????? Lol! Cool down mate and listen to me: Germany will beat spain and will most likely also win this tournament on their home ground. Spain is talented but too many players on their starting eleven are by far too inexperienced to win a big tournament. The current Germany players are much more experienced and much more successful on international top level (World Cup, Euro or Champions League) then spain. Take a look at the starting eleven from the first ko round (which is most likely also the starting eleven for the quarter final). The German players have played combined a total of approx 750 international games for the national team of Germany compared to approx 340 of the spanish players. Germany is also packed with players who were already very successful at the real big games in international top football (World Cup, Euro, Champions League). They have 2 players (Neuer and Kroos) in their starting eleven who won the World Cup. Spain has 0. Germany has 8 players (Neuer, Kroos, Ruediger, Kimmich, Guendogan, Havertz, Musiala, Sane) in their starting eleven who won the Champions League. Spain just 4 (Morata, Rodri, Carvajal, Laporte). Its not even close!!! People simply dont understand how important experience is if you want to win a big tournament! Since Busquets left spain also dont have a REAL leader anymore. Spain even lost a qualification game for this Euro vs scotland with 0-2. The same scotland which got destroyed 5-1 by the Germans. When you put pressure onto their defense then they will struggle due to the lack of experience on real international top level (WC, Euro or CL). And believe me guys: Spain will face tonight MASSIVE PRESSURE in front of the huge German crowd in Stutgart!!!!!!
Spain 2024 remember me of the spanish 2022 WC team. First big show and then at ko stage quickly game over for spain. Spain is a football nation which is historically always struggling when it really matters in the big ko games. This struggeling in the big ko games is their history. Its in their DNA. The only exception to this in spanish football history was the huge Xavi, Alonso, Iniesta era 2008-2012. But such a team is only existing every 100 years and THIS spanish team 2024 is not even close to the 2008-2012 monster spain. Outside these 4 years (2008-2012) spain is historically known as a notorious loser team when it comes to the REAL important and big games at the big World Cup and Euro tournaments. Their statistics during their 100 years of spanish national football team history (outside 2008-2012) is following: 0 World Cup titles, 0 WC finals, 1 WC semi final, 1 Euro title, 1 Euro final. Thats it in 100 years of spanish football outside the Xavi, Xabi, Iniesta era. They didnt reached even ONE SINGLE World Cup final outside this 4 years era!! Thats a DESASTER statistic and shows the historical lack of winning mentality in spanish national team football history! No fanboy blablabla here! Just sheer FACTS!!!
Germany is the exact opposite of spain! 4 World Cup titles, 8 WC finals (world record), 13 WC semi finals (world record), 3 Euro titles (europe record), 6 Euro finals (of course again europe record). You see the difference? Its not luck! Believe me: Its called WINNING MENTALITY!!!! Germany are the masters of winning mentality!!!
I know that some fan boys are saying that Germany won the last time 1988 against spain in a WC or Euro game. Thats true but if you look into the details then its just backing up what I wrote above. Fact is that Germany faced spain 5 times in World Cup or Euro games since 1988. Germany won the Euro game 1988 and there were 2 draws at WC 1994 and 2022. Spain won the other 2 games 2008 and 2010 with 1-0. But that was no surprise because it was exactly this monster era of Xavi, Xabi, Iniesta which I mentioned above. I CLEARY wrote above that this was a monster team but such a team exists only once in 100 years. The current spain 2024 is lightyears away from monster spain 2008-2012. And outside this little time frame of 4 years (2008-2012) spain is known in 100 years of spanish national team football history (as I described above) as notorious losers when it comes to big games at WC or Euro. The truth is that outside this monster era 2008-2012 spain only won 1 single game against Germany at a big tournament in the history of football. It was a group game in the Euro 1984 with 1-0 scored in the 90th minute. So finally its just backing up what I described above.
Germany had a MASSIVE trainer/coach/manager problem during the last 5-6 years because Löw and Flick are very average coaches who did MASSIVE mistakes when they were the coach of Germanys national team. Similar to Southgate who never was/is able to bring England top quality on the pitch. There is a reason why most germans were so happy when Loew and Flick got fired! But now Germany solved this problem and they have with the tactic guy Nagelsmann and german striker legend Rudi Völler a great combination on coach/manager level.
The current Germany has the perfect balance on their team. They have super experienced players who won everything including the World Cup (Kroos, Neuer, Mueller) and they have many mid aged players who won the Champions League (Guendogan, Kimmich, Ruediger, Havertz, Sane) and they have young generation superstars (Musiala, Wirtz).
When you compare the sheer football quality of the current teams then its quite close with a slight advantage for Germany because more german players from their starting eleven already proved that they were successful at hightest international football level. Germany is also physically stronger then spain and they even have the home advantage now! This home advantage and the history are giving Germany a huge mental advantage!
Spain didnt face a powerhouse like Germany yet. This partly unexperienced spanish team will not stand the immense huge pressure which they will face in Stuttgart in front of the german crowd! All these online fanboys simply dont understand how important experience, mentality, physical strenght and home advantage is in such a big game. Trust me guys: This partly unexperienced spain will not survive such a monster ko game against a historical powerhouse like the four times World Champions Germany in front of the german home crowd!
@@michaelwagner2246you could have just summarised as Germany has the more experienced side with a mix of players which played and won the world cup and fresh talent
Yamal & Nico vs Musiala & Wirtz 🥲
The future of football is in safe hands 🔥
Wirtz is overrated from this tournament
Amazing talents.
@@modernsoccer1860 He wasn't in the starting eleven last match.
Yawn.
@@modernsoccer1860 WIRTZ is not playing in his preferred position as a CAM. he like a younger agile version of KDB.
Anything can happen, but the last time Germany beat Spain in an official match was 36 years ago. I was kinda hoping someone brought that up.
They did, watch the whole video
not sure if i got you right but in the end someone was indeed bringing that statistic up. anyway its just half of the truth as that statistic refers to competitive matches and leaves friendlies out. i have more statistics for you: of the last four matches (2018, 2020, 2020, 2022) germany only lost once against spain. and the all time records show: spain won 8, germany won 9, and 9 draws. add the match statistics from this euro 2024 and everything seems like its going to be a tight fight today. cant wait!
@@redbullsalz my bad, I should really have watched the whole thing 😅
And in those 36 years they had 3 competitive matches. 1-0, 1-0 and 1-1. This is a 90min knock-out game between two teams on the same level. Nuances will decide. Anyone can win. It's gonna be a great game.

So Spain haven’t lost to Germany since 1988? That’s crazy and people think Germany will win tomorrow? It’s most likely going to be a Spain win. Rodri will dominate that midfield.
The other way to look at it is that the last time Deutschland won against España was in 1988 at MUNICH. Home Crowd is a Huge advantage in such kind of Knockout fixtures.
I wouldn't be so positive of Rodri dominating against Gundogan & Kroos.
They had what? three competitive games. The final 2008 was very close 1-0, the semi final in 2010 was a close 1-0 win as well and in Qatar it was a well deserved 1-1.

Spain for me. I think they'll swarm all over Kroos like they did to Pirlo in 2012. I'm backing Germany though because they're my sweepstake team.
Animo amigo!!
It amazes me how many people are totally overlooking Spain's defensive issues. Plus their wastefulness despite creating
tons of chances. Georgia caught them at least 3 times on the break and got a goal out of 1. Georgia just lacked any quality to score. But the remaining teams do have it.
Spain has not been tested defensively, because the italian and croatian offense was not at their best in this tournament.
@@hsafootballworld1321germany will test their defense.
Are you saying this because no team has been able to score a goal against them? The only goal they have conceded is an own goal.
Could be a final, this one.
Spain has risen to the challenge..perhaps you pundits should re-write your narrative
Spain go through, carvajal to score from a corner
These guys are going to cancel each other out.

Potentially the game of the tournament?
Pity it's two games early.
I am here and I predicted it would go extra time amd it happened
Today this is final match for Germany vs Spain next is the semi final coming up against France and Germany will play quarterfinal against Netherlands….
Sid needs to carry a good microphone with him.
Who's here after frank made one of his famous predictions again 😂😂
I think these two sides will cancel each other out.
it will be tight and won by a single goal...could go either way.
You did not expect Spain at this level??? You have not seen a single Spanish match
Spain was on a very high level but in my opinion not the better team.
Germany haven't achieved as much as they are expected to in last 8 or 10 years. They haven't got out of the group stage of the last two world cups and haven't done so well in the last euros too. So, this year they might have a plan to at least get to the final or win it all as they are playing at home. And they have a very young team around Tony Kroos in the midfield.
Er they won the world cup in 2014 and won the confedrations cup in 2017. What has Spain won in the last 8 to 10 years?
@@sivaramlord9151 nothing against Spain or Germany.
Last world cup which was the last tournament Spain and Germany were in the same group, they draw against each other and both lost vs Japan.
McManaman well done:you said it right:Athletic Club!!!!!
I think spain will win because i dont think germany fullbacks can stop those boys tbh..
All depends on the midfield, Spain haven’t been very clinical all tournament, that Germany midfield will tear Spain up if they play too risky,
Not to mention Spain defense ain’t the best either
Left side of the bracket is unpredictable... Spain vs Germany/ France vs Portugal it can go either way but right side is pretty obvuous England and Netherlands advance to Semifinals.
What about Switzerland?
I would say Switzerland and the Netherlands advance to the semis
In what world das Portugal win this after playing that poor and win on Pens. France will humble them.
Nothing better than german tears❤ the pain of a last minute goal in overtime ❤ the humbling of the Heimat and the volk❤❤❤❤ loving it

How can anybody be the best team so far when they've mostly all played different teams? That doesn't make any sense at all.
Basically it is based on statistics, most shots, most ball possession, pass accuracy, most goal, less allowed chances, most won duels in midfield etc... u name them.
@@wokeaf1337 But those stats are compiled against entirely different teams. Besides, stats are only a small part of what affects the outcome of any match. We're not all AI generated robots quite yet. I'm not saying Spain won't win the tournament (they might), but their play so far doesn't much factor in.
@@TT-fq7pl yeah well u work with stats to calculate probabilities of the outcome of a game. For example the higher the ball possession the less chance for the opponent to come to chances to score goal.
I'm English and I want the winner of Spain Germany to win the Euros.
They play the game the way it should be played instead of the unbeliveeably negative style England have adopted.
Germanys biggest hope in this tie is their brilliant coach who is very capable of changing tactics and adapting well to situations. Nagelsmann is one coach who can come out with a tactic that can stop the Spain from being effective as they have so far. If there is one man who can do that, its Nagelsmann
I'm really curious to see whether Nagelsmann has adapted his strategy and line-up to Spain or whether he will continue to play as before.
Lamine yamal is the best under 18 player in the world 🌎

Carvajal is the best right back up in the world.
@@andrekoerber7334Walker also
This was more of a Spain prereview
We could be set for another humiliating Germany loss to Spain. Spain just looks too strong, completely apart from any other team.
It’s all going to boil down to if Germany can effectively counter attack, seeing their mid field with kross who is well versed in counterattacking football and musiala being quite fast. Spain could be in trouble. Scoring first in this game is huge, if Germany score first they can continue with a low block pounce tactic but if Spain score first Germany will be forced to open up as the time goes on. Opening up against Spain is a death sentence
They keep repeating Spain hasn't played anyone of worth. But you can say same for Germany.
Germany comfortably beat France and comeback against the Netherlands before the euros.
If they had a more clinical option up front it’s wraps for spains leaky defence
Nope u cant, they played Switzerland who trashed Italy.
Germany had a more impressive trajectory and athletecism in the past 6 months but Spain's consistency and experience over the last 4 years could pay off.
“A comfortable 2-0 over Denmark” is something only someone who did not see the entire game would say. Yes, Germany was the better team most off the time and at instances dominating, but for long durationa DK matched and threatened DE and the game could have swung in an entirely different direction at crucial moments where game state was decided. Margins, technology and rules decided that game. No doubt.
The game was comfortable because it was decided by rules. U have to remove the scenes where VAR interferee from ur memory, whats is left from the game?
Alles gute, Deutschland. Aus 🏴🤝🇩🇪❤️
What language is McManaman speaking ???? 🙂
France have so many quality CBs that 2 French CBs had to go play for Spain just so they could experience international football 😂😂😂
Yeah Spain didn’t play against the best teams, but what about Germany? Scotland ? Denmark? Y’all are biased…
Germany played against Switzerland, a team that also made the quarter finals.
I think Spain will do it slightly superior imo and I don't think Spain will be to affected by the germans
Germany is Underdog. I am 40 years old and never saw my Team 🇩🇪 win against Spain over the years. Sad, but true. Spain will destroy us 4:0

Germany will beat spain and will most likely also win this tournament on their home ground. Spain is talented but too many players on their starting eleven are by far too inexperienced to win a big tournament. The current Germany players are much more experienced and much more successful on international top level (World Cup, Euro or Champions League) then spain. Take a look at the starting eleven from the first ko round (which is most likely also the starting eleven for the quarter final). The German players have played combined a total of approx 750 international games for the national team of Germany compared to approx 340 of the spanish players. Germany is also packed with players who were already very successful at the real big games in international top football (World Cup, Euro, Champions League). They have 2 players (Neuer and Kroos) in their starting eleven who won the World Cup. Spain has 0. Germany has 8 players (Neuer, Kroos, Ruediger, Kimmich, Guendogan, Havertz, Musiala, Sane) in their starting eleven who won the Champions League. Spain just 4 (Morata, Rodri, Carvajal, Laporte). Its not even close!!! People simply dont understand how important experience is if you want to win a big tournament! Since Busquets left spain also dont have a REAL leader anymore. Spain even lost a qualification game for this Euro vs scotland with 0-2. The same scotland which got destroyed 5-1 by the Germans. When you put pressure onto their defense then they will struggle due to the lack of experience on real international top level (WC, Euro or CL). And believe me guys: Spain will face tonight MASSIVE PRESSURE in front of the huge German crowd in Stutgart!!!!!!
Spain 2024 remember me of the spanish 2022 WC team. First big show and then at ko stage quickly game over for spain. Spain is a football nation which is historically always struggling when it really matters in the big ko games. This struggeling in the big ko games is their history. Its in their DNA. The only exception to this in spanish football history was the huge Xavi, Alonso, Iniesta era 2008-2012. But such a team is only existing every 100 years and THIS spanish team 2024 is not even close to the 2008-2012 monster spain. Outside these 4 years (2008-2012) spain is historically known as a notorious loser team when it comes to the REAL important and big games at the big World Cup and Euro tournaments. Their statistics during their 100 years of spanish national football team history (outside 2008-2012) is following: 0 World Cup titles, 0 WC finals, 1 WC semi final, 1 Euro title, 1 Euro final. Thats it in 100 years of spanish football outside the Xavi, Xabi, Iniesta era. They didnt reached even ONE SINGLE World Cup final outside this 4 years era!! Thats a DESASTER statistic and shows the historical lack of winning mentality in spanish national team football history! No fanboy blablabla here! Just sheer FACTS!!!
Germany is the exact opposite of spain! 4 World Cup titles, 8 WC finals (world record), 13 WC semi finals (world record), 3 Euro titles (europe record), 6 Euro finals (of course again europe record). You see the difference? Its not luck! Believe me: Its called WINNING MENTALITY!!!! Germany are the masters of winning mentality!!!
I know that some fan boys are saying that Germany won the last time 1988 against spain in a WC or Euro game. Thats true but if you look into the details then its just backing up what I wrote above. Fact is that Germany faced spain 5 times in World Cup or Euro games since 1988. Germany won the Euro game 1988 and there were 2 draws at WC 1994 and 2022. Spain won the other 2 games 2008 and 2010 with 1-0. But that was no surprise because it was exactly this monster era of Xavi, Xabi, Iniesta which I mentioned above. I CLEARY wrote above that this was a monster team but such a team exists only once in 100 years. The current spain 2024 is lightyears away from monster spain 2008-2012. And outside this little time frame of 4 years (2008-2012) spain is known in 100 years of spanish national team football history (as I described above) as notorious losers when it comes to big games at WC or Euro. The truth is that outside this monster era 2008-2012 spain only won 1 single game against Germany at a big tournament in the history of football. It was a group game in the Euro 1984 with 1-0 scored in the 90th minute. So finally its just backing up what I described above.
Germany had a MASSIVE trainer/coach/manager problem during the last 5-6 years because Löw and Flick are very average coaches who did MASSIVE mistakes when they were the coach of Germanys national team. Similar to Southgate who never was/is able to bring England top quality on the pitch. There is a reason why most germans were so happy when Loew and Flick got fired! But now Germany solved this problem and they have with the tactic guy Nagelsmann and german striker legend Rudi Völler a great combination on coach/manager level.
The current Germany has the perfect balance on their team. They have super experienced players who won everything including the World Cup (Kroos, Neuer, Mueller) and they have many mid aged players who won the Champions League (Guendogan, Kimmich, Ruediger, Havertz, Sane) and they have young generation superstars (Musiala, Wirtz).
When you compare the sheer football quality of the current teams then its quite close with a slight advantage for Germany because more german players from their starting eleven already proved that they were successful at hightest international football level. Germany is also physically stronger then spain and they even have the home advantage now! This home advantage and the history are giving Germany a huge mental advantage!
Spain didnt face a powerhouse like Germany yet. This partly unexperienced spanish team will not stand the immense huge pressure which they will face in Stuttgart in front of the german crowd! All these online fanboys simply dont understand how important experience, mentality, physical strenght and home advantage is in such a big game. Trust me guys: This partly unexperienced spain will not survive such a monster ko game against a historical powerhouse like the four times World Champions Germany in front of the german home crowd!
We beat England at the end, this was the funniest sentence of all.
Let's go England, let's go Germany for a meeting in Berlin.
Neither nor...Froggies - Gloggies will be the final.
@@andrekoerber7334 We'll see 😂
I see a Germany v Netherlands final .... Spain are lovely to watch but not all pretty teams win a tournament
May be they are wrong bracket 😂
England got the easiest tie and still i dont think they will come out... Thats how bad southgate is
Turkeye is easier to beat than Swiss
Spain!!!
As expected all English pundit predicting Spain will loose the match, same when Real Madrid plays.
The mentality of spanish national team is very different from the mentality or pedigree of Real Madrid.
Real Madrid is more like the national teams of Germany and Italy of 80s. They know how to get the job done in crucial games despite not playing the most dominant football.
The 2 french "Spaniards" Le Normand and Laporte are Spains weak point.
I will write this comment under every football related video until it gets traction. Whoever thinks the same can just copy paste it under other football videos too. VAR should be able to communicate with refs and punish dives with yellow cards even after the game has continued. I am so very sick of all these dives that get overlooked and left unpunished
I got a bad feeling that Germany will lose to Spain again
And they are
Dont worry, mate! Germany will beat spain and will most likely also win this tournament on their home ground. Spain is talented but too many players on their starting eleven are by far too inexperienced to win a big tournament. The current Germany players are much more experienced and much more successful on international top level (World Cup, Euro or Champions League) then spain. Take a look at the starting eleven from the first ko round (which is most likely also the starting eleven for the quarter final). The German players have played combined a total of approx 750 international games for the national team of Germany compared to approx 340 of the spanish players. Germany is also packed with players who were already very successful at the real big games in international top football (World Cup, Euro, Champions League). They have 2 players (Neuer and Kroos) in their starting eleven who won the World Cup. Spain has 0. Germany has 8 players (Neuer, Kroos, Ruediger, Kimmich, Guendogan, Havertz, Musiala, Sane) in their starting eleven who won the Champions League. Spain just 4 (Morata, Rodri, Carvajal, Laporte). Its not even close!!! People simply dont understand how important experience is if you want to win a big tournament! Since Busquets left spain also dont have a REAL leader anymore.

@michaelwagner2246 next time write a book 😂
@@michaelwagner2246 because they are hardly beat them especially 6-0 lost and got 1-1 draw which doesn't seem to be improving at all
@@YamatoNaoeno one cares about 6:0 it's not either wc or euros
Thanks for choosing Germany as the winner by ESPN pundits because every time they have predicted they were wrong n this team too they will eat their own words
spain will beat germany...book it
5:00 how do professional journalists get away with such horrible audio/video quality? Amateur hour!
the german defense is ok......but not good enough for Spain ! On the other side; football is not chess....you have a good/bad luck factor of at least 20 % , that's why 'Underdogs ' have always a chance to win.
Spain will win
Germany will have to much experience for Spain.
England, playing their shitty brand of football creeping their way to the finals ...again....how lucky can a nation be over and over again.
Vote reform
Bitter. The video is about Spain and Germany.
Not that lucky, English women look like Uruk-Hai.
😂
England should be at home but they will end up
In final
Like Portugal in 2016.
Germany 2-1 Spain
in your dreams
@@liamsh6978 "in your dreams" there was a brazilian that said the same thing back in 2014. Spanyards seem to be very arrogant and overconfident these days... i think this is why they will fall today
0:12 It's Türkiye
We are talking about Europe and football...so you Turks have to keep your mouth shut....in English it is "Turkey". Play the Asian Cup next time. There you have a chance to get to the semis.
@@andrekoerber7334 Why so much hate? Btw the UN has renamed the official name in English from Turkey to Türkiye.
It ll be an other Bayern vs Barcelona situation 😂😂 Whatever. If you don't believe me ,i don't care
Full support Spain 🇪🇦🇵🇰
This super team IS not complete... Badjetic BryanZaragoza Moleiro Barrios RoroRiquelme Cubarsí Mosquera Omorodion Huijsen Veiga NicoGonzález Gavi Baldé 😮
You forgot Busquet 😂
Let’s not forget Germany for the past 8 years have been pure trash… I think they have done well to get to the quarters. 2026 will be their year
They've been hot garbage for the last decade, not even getting out of the Group Phase in the last two World Cups. Plus they don't match up well with Spain anyways.
@@TheMiamiUteEven when they were at their worst in 2022 they achieved a 2-2 against Spain in the world cup group phase and they beat Portugal 4-2 in the euro 2021 group phase. So Yea they didn't win a round of 16 since 2016, but they haven't been trash the past decade.
The last 8 years is right, since in 2016 they did reasonably well.
@@TheMiamiUtei strongly disagree that they match up poorly.
@@privatevendetta Really? You must not have watched Spain playing Germany over the last half decade. Germany might win or they might not. They do have the advantage of playing at home but also all of the pressure to get a good result. I'll be really interested to see how Kimmich and Raum deal with Williams and Lamine. We all saw how Vinicius roasted KImmich time and time again during the UCL and Williams is just as fast as Vini.
@@david53444 They've been trash. No one is afraid of or really accounts for Germany any more. They're an European Brazil, a fallen giant that lives off past glories. The only reason why they're still in this tournament is because well, it's being played in Germany and homefileld advantage counts for something.
Spain advance, Portugal advance, Netherland advance, Switzerland advance.
Germany will advance against Spain because this game will be fixed be the the organizing body (UEFA), they would make sure Germany reaches the semi final since they are the host nation. I think they would apply pressure on the Spanish football board and spain will bow down to UEFA's demands.
Portugal beats France, because France is not interested in playing due to the ongoing the political situation in their country. It will have an impact of them.
Netherlands beat Turkey fairly.
England will overcome Switzerland, but not easily.
The heart wants Spain, the brain says Germany. Morata will disappoint as usual. Time to let go.
Okey
Spain will win but by a small margin
Germany will surprise watch
Wait, you're capable of writing normal comments? Wow, that's a turn up for the books.
Very undeserved victory for the Spaniards, disgusting troops with a case problem. And I haven't seen a good attitude that it was offside before the handball. Clear penalty
HASTA LA VISTA ALMANIA
Germany could beat spain though👍
