The irresistible force meets a real estate object: Spain and Germany take place for semi -euro in euros

As Spain and Germany compete in the second of the two semi-finals of the European Women’s Championship, they will know if it is England or Italy that they will play in the Masters of Sunday.

Although the Spanish has long been considered one of the favorites of the tournament, they never arrived at a final, while Germany was nine years old – including seven of the last eight.

History promotes Germany

If they were to face England, it would be a rehearsal of the 2022 final in which the lionesses triumphed.

Fortune also promotes Christian Wuck’s team, given that they are undefeated against Spain during the last eight meetings (W5, D3) with a positive difference in goals of 18-3.

Indeed, in their five most recent head-to-head, the Spanish managed to score only one goal and were kept tirelessly during four of these five meetings.

In addition, in their 10 semi-finals in euros for women to date, Germany has progressed in nine of them, their only loss in 1993 for penalties in Italy.

In recent times, the Germans have won the bronze medal match against Spain at the Olympic Games and also their match at Euro 2022.

So, for all the offensive verve that the Spanish can and probably display Wednesday, Germany knows how to tame the beast – as they have proven many and many times.

The current shape of the two teams is impeccable

The mental aspect of the match could therefore also come into play if things do not take place in Spanish as the last stages of the match approaches.

While the current form of the two teams is impeccable, Germany was canceled by Sweden in the group phase, and this 4-1 defeat meant a second place.

It is a Blip in a recent also perfect record, while Spain can get better. The Montse Tome team won 12 of its last 13 international games and scored three or more goals in 10 of these victories.

It was only in their 2-0 victory against the guests of the tournament in Switzerland that they did not score more than 3 goals, although it was stressed that they also missed two penalties in this match (Caldentey, Putellas).

It is an impressive and dominant series of form and which will take a stop on Wednesday.

Spain is also the winners of the World Cup and the Champions of the League of Nations, the addition of euros to this list of titles has an obvious cachet.

Suspensions for both sides

In terms of team news, Kathrin Hendrich in Germany is suspended after the red card she received in the quarter -finals for pulling the hair of Griedge Mbock, and Sjoeke Nusken is also unavailable after her second yellow card of the tournament.

Sarai Linder’s Ligament’s injury will see her play further in the tournament, and the captain, Giulia Gwinn, also misses the semi-final (and the potential final) due to the serious knee injury she suffered in the match against Poland.

For the Spanish, who have already equaled their best performance at euros, Laia Aleixandri is also suspended after picking up a second yellow card of the tournament for a late tackle on Iman Beeney in Switzerland.

Esther Gonzalez was in the form of a fine score and is at the top of the charts with four goals at the moment, and with people like Claudia Pina (two goals, two assists) and Alexia Putellas (three goals) also scoring for pleasure, it seems, Germany could be unusually found on the back for long periods of this match.

German counterattack could stifle the creativity of Spain

A 4-1-4-1 training could therefore be likely with these two banks of four working in defensively tandem and the wide players in the midfield capable of going back and forth to repel Pulellas and Aitana Bonmati in a 4-3-3 Spanish striker.

Allowing one of the Spanish -front six to hit their straps, especially in opening up exchanges, could prove fatal to German chances of progression since players could already feel a little drained of their epic quarter -final against the French.

Do not be surprised to find them by playing a more counterattack game than as a result. This is because Spain has an average of more than 70% possession in most of their matches, and because Wucck cannot afford to allow the game to move away from its players after playing so long in a match with a woman broken down.

The energy levels already spent in the quarterfinals could well be the only area which ultimately gives the advantage of Spain in a confrontation which is almost certain to demand that each player leaves everything on the field.

The irresistible force meets the building object

We will probably see a game where the irresistible strength encounters the real estate object, and this should make a great watch.

The German tournament of us has already maintained them so far, but will they have enough to cross the barrier of pain against a team that will constantly support them for 90 minutes?
