Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Spain and France will face off in the UEFA EURO 2024 semifinal on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Spain duo Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand will miss the France match that will kick off at 1900GMT at Munich Football Arena.<\/p>\n

Central defender Le Normand has received two yellow cards in the tournament to be suspended for one match. Carvajal, a Real Madrid right-back, was sent off during the previous game against hosts Germany in Stuttgart.<\/p>\n

In addition, Spain midfielder Pedri faced a knee injury to miss the rest of the EURO 2024. The Barcelona regular was forced to leave the field during the quarterfinal match against Germany.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile France have no suspended players.<\/p>\n

Slovenia’s Slavko Vincic will be the referee of this match.<\/p>\n

Spain won Group B, which included Italy, Croatia, and Albania.<\/p>\n

The Spaniards won all three matches without conceding a single goal, achieving a perfect record.<\/p>\n

Then Spain eliminated Georgia 4-1 in Round of 16 and sealed a hard-fought victory against Germany 2-1 in the quarterfinals after extra time.<\/p>\n

Didier Deschamps’ France began their EURO campaign in Group D, alongside Austria, the Netherlands, and Poland.<\/p>\n

Les Bleus secured a place in the last 16 by finishing second in their group behind Austria, accumulating five points from one win and two draws.<\/p>\n

France won against Belgium 1-0 to march to the last eight.<\/p>\n

Then in the quarterfinals, France beat Portugal 5-3 on penalties in Hamburg.<\/p>\n

Both teams became the semifinalists for the sixth time in the EUROs history.<\/p>\n

Spain bagged three European championships in history; 1964, 2008 and 2012.<\/p>\n

France won the EURO title twice; 1984 and 2000. Les Bleus reached the 2016 final at Stade de France but lost to Portugal 1-0 on home soil.<\/p>\n

Netherlands set to face England on Wednesday<\/b><\/p>\n

In another semifinal clash, the Netherlands, which previously eliminated Tu\u0308rkiye 2-1, will play against England on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The match, which will be refereed by Felix Zwayer from Germany, will start at 1900GMT at the BVB Stadion Dortmund.<\/p>\n

On July 6, Gareth Southgate’s England beat Switzerland 5-3 on penalties to progress.<\/p>\n

England’s opponents in the semis, the Netherlands were the EURO 1988 winners, which is still their only European title.<\/p>\n

Called ‘The Three Lions’, England have not won a major football trophy since the 1966 FIFA World Cup, but they were the EURO 2020 runners-up.<\/p>\n

The EURO 2024 final will be held on Sunday at Berlin’s Olympiastadion.<\/p>\n
