Spain surge in front!

Coaches' Corner
Both Luis de la Fuente and Didier Deschamps were in defiant mood ahead of Tuesday's clash. Spain's head coach was beaming with positivity, telling UEFA.com that - "My players are insatiable", however, he will not be letting his team get ahead of themselves "There’s always room for improvement, of course, but we can't question their pride, quality and commitment." Deschamps was slightly more subdued, but determined as ever - "We're in the semi-finals and it's something we shouldn't take for granted, even if we may be used to it recently...Now we go to win it."

Head-to-head
Despite being two heavyweights of European football, these two sides don't meet very often. Their last encounter was a UEFA Nations League final in 2021, which saw France take the title courtesy of goals from Kylian Mbappé and Karim Benzema. Before this, the two sides had met in friendlies, one which saw Spain win 2-0 with goals coming from David Silva and Gerard Deulofeu in 2017, and the other seeing Loïc Rémy score the only goal of the game in a French win in 2014.
