Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands qualified for the semi-finals of the UEFA Euro 2024 after some exciting battles in the quarter-finals.
Spain booked their spot first after defeating the hosts Germany by 2-1 in Extra time. Dani Olmo and Mikel Merino helped Spain advance further in the tournament while Toni Kroos' Germany got knocked out of the competition. In the other quarter-final, France beat Portugal 5-3 on penalties after scoring no goals in the 120 minutes. Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe couldn't take their team further and their dream of winning another Euro is over.
England beat Switzerland in the third quarter-final by 5-3 on penalties. Breel Embolo did provide his side with the lead but Bukayo Saka brought England back into the game. The match eventually went into penalties and England were professional enough to clinch the victory and advance to the semi-final.
In the fourth and last quarter-final, Turkey faced the Netherlands and almost beat them. But the Dutches had other plans. Akaydin took the lead for Turkiye in the first half but De Vrij's late 70th minute equalizer brought the Netherlands back into the tie. An own goal from Muldur in the 76th minute crushed Turkey's dream of playing in the semi-final.
