The EURO 2024 quarter-final matches are about to begin, and there’s a lot of excitement in the air. The first game is between Spain and Germany in Stuttgart, followed by Portugal facing off against France in Hamburg.
Both teams have been impressive performers so far, with Nico Williams leading the charge for Spain. He has been playing exceptionally well and will be a player to watch as he goes up against Joshua Kimmich. Cristiano Ronaldo is also looking to bounce back from his below-par performance against Slovenia in Portugal’s last game.
Did you know that this is the fourth time that Spain and Germany have met at the Euros? Their last encounter was in the 2008 final. Additionally, no host nation has ever been eliminated in the quarter-final stage of the European Championship, adding to the tension of this match.
In terms of head-to-head matches, France has a strong record against Portugal, having lost only one of their last 14 games against them. So it will be an exciting battle between these two sides.
