Two goals in four minutes in the first half lifted Spain to a 2-1 come-from-behind win over France and a berth in the UEFA Euro 2024 final. Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo scored for La Roja after Randal Kolo Muani opened the scoring for Les Bleus.
Two goals in four minutes in the first half lifted Spain to a 2-1 come-from-behind win over France and a berth in the UEFA Euro 2024 final.
On the other side of the pitch, Didier Deschamps opted for one change to the team that beat Portugal on penalties with Ousmane Dembele preferred to Antoine Griezmann up front. But France's lead would only last for 12 minutes with Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal producing the sublime. Leading the tournament with three assists, the 16-year-old Yamal got his first goal of the tournament in the 20th and it was spectacular. After it appeared that France had cleared the danger, Yamal latched onto the ball just outside the area and unleashed a beautiful curling effort to beat Mike Maignan to make it 1-1.
To start the second half, France showed urgency, but had little to show for it. In the 52nd, Dembele did well to cross up Marc Cucurella, but his cross into the area floated harmlessly into Simon's arms. A minute later, from a corner, he found Tchouameni, who headed directly at Simon. A better effort probably would have scored.
