Dude... Greece of 2004 had one shot every other game and somehow won it......one time wonder-miracle. No one (except Greek people) can give the name of any player from that Greek team of 2004 without Googling it. The comparison to a team that just did 2 consecutive WC finals (winning one and nearly winning the other) and making the semi finale of 4 of 5 consecutive tournaments is ludicrous.
Carvajal shouldn't have had to make that foul, it was 2 minutes past the stoppage time limit.

Anyway, why am I showing this? I actually wanted to find chances creation% stat but couldnt, but this kinda shows France with most of attackers in the top 10 of shots attempt are attacking. You only have Harry Kane in top 10. France made 56 shots attempt in 5 games but only 15 on target. Now you take into account Mbappe also having to wear a mask is affecting his play. In the top 50, three English players made for 30 shots attempt, 7 on target with a header for Kane and that nice goal from Saka. France is attacking. Just cant finish

Olmo will teach you guys just like he did that with Germany. You shouldn't say it is your style. Playing defensively will get the best of you.
Goal-shy France will be looking to silence the critics when they take on Spain in their Euro 2024 semi-final clash on Tuesday in Munich, while their opponents hope to keep their impressive campaign going even without key players.
When you cannot score, whatever the reasons are, if you have a strong défense, you can win. That's what we did, so far...if I was not french I would say France must loose because of the lack of animation As a Frenchmen, the défense is amazing, they are giving everything for the Jersey . We had flamboyants attackers until recently, but now we are struggling in front of the goal posts, our défense make me happy. For once, they are in the spotlights.

Gab is right.France should play an offensice football,they have much talent.Defensive football is for teams that lack talented players they base on tactics.What hppens actually is that France is trying to play defensively but this way they inhibit their talent and also risk to lose becouse Kounde is a very weak point.

Hello!! Bros but I don't think that what Carvajal did was fair but come on, but was what Toni Kroos did to Danny Olmo fair? The man should of been red carded and sent off (personally think ref didn't do it cause it was he last game and tournament as he's retiring) ,Danny was heading on to a one to one with the goalie, which normally ends in a goal, so could have been Spain 3 and Germany 1 plus let's start counting fouls that the Germans did to stay with their yellow cards against Spain's and all because they were seeing that it was hard for them to play against Spain which meant it was also going to be hard to score and there their only one goal

Oh Jules, when it comes to England, u r super critical of Gareth but for Deschamp, he is super defensive. Have some bxlls to comment ur team Jules. At least England scored goals in this tournament but not France. Absolutely rubbish display.
Juls is French so he will always defend France. There is only one country in semifinals that know what she is doing and that's Spain. England got a little hang of it in their last match we still need another match to confirm so is netherland. Deschamps is flipping clueless, imagine playing a tournament with 3dm's you have not scored yet and you still continue relying on full backs. A pundit should see that and if juls doesn't see that probably he should watch all the games cause I watch them all and I don't get paid to do so, unlike him. Reference: Check his comments on the world cup final, Scaloni was brilliant but he kept praising FRANCE that barely made it through mbappe.
Alejandro Baena, Fermin Lopez are all ready to replace Olmo in the second half
I hope for footbals sake Spain wins, the beaty of football is at stake.
