The quarterfinals of both the UEFA Euro and Copa America have concluded, revealing the semi-finalists in each competition.
Out of the 12 UEFA Euro knockout matches and the 4 Copa America elimination games, there have been 8 draws in regular time, with an impressive 5 of those ending 1-1 and another 3 finishing scoreless at 0-0.
Six encounters ultimately went to penalty shootouts, while only Spain and England managed to eliminate Germany and Slovakia, respectively, in extra time.
This indicates that the level of competitiveness among teams in world football is increasingly balanced, but it also highlights a more cautious approach in knockout fixtures, leading to a decline in the entertainment value of the matches.
