‘We are waiting’
In his post-match press conference, Spain boss Luis de la Fuente expressed his delight – and also said he had no preference whether his side faces the Netherlands or England in Sunday’s final.
He said: “We are very happy, the happiness was already great to get here but now it is much greater.
“I feel a lot of pride for these players, they are exceptional, they know how to play and read the games in an extraordinary way.
“We have returned Spanish football to where it belongs. We have to value what these players are doing.
“We want to continue making history, we don’t want to relax, we have to stay focused to face the final in Berlin.
“It doesn’t matter who the opponent is, we’ve already seen the journey we’ve had in this European Championship.
“They are two great rivals and we are waiting for them with open arms. We want to win the final.”
Luke Littler has his say…
Darts hero Luke Littler took to social media to send a bizarre, hilarious message to his fellow teen sensation.
Yamal became the youngest scorer ever at the European Championships just three days shy of his 17th birthday…
Yamal’s brutal message
In the build up to the game France midfielder Adrien Rabiot had his say on Lamine Yamal and said the teenage midfielder would have to “do much more” to reach the Euro 2024 final.
Rabiot said before the game: “It is always complicated to manage a semi-final in a tournament like this, but it will be up to us to put the pressure on him [Lamine Yamal] above all.
“Not to let him feel comfortable and to show him that to play in a Euro final, he will have to do much more than what he has done so far.”
But Yamal clearly had the last laugh, scoring a brilliant equalising goal as Spain booked their place in Sunday’s showpiece.
Immediately after the game, the Barcelona wonderkid then got his own back on Rabiot, looking straight down the camera and appearing to say: “Speak now, speak now!”.
