In the Euro semi-final, Spain versus France. Pre-match, Spanish football expert Guillem Balague stated that Spain is fighting for the “future of football.”
Spain is considered the most entertaining team in the tournament, with their playing style providing a stark contrast to the more pragmatic approach of opponents France.
Balague said, “We are not just fighting for Spain, we are fighting for the future of football. You know how major tournaments work, if you win in a certain way, everyone will want to play like that.”
He also pointed out that there have been fewer goals scored in this tournament, and it will require Spain defeating France to ensure an exciting final: “The start of the competition was very thrilling, but now there is an average of only 1.02 goals per game, the lowest since 1996.”
France has seen only four goals in total across their five matches at the Euros, scoring three and conceding one, with two penalties and two own goals. If the final is between France and England, it could severely damage the reputation of the Euro tournament.
