Spain are hoping for a sixth victory at Euro 2024, and if they can achieve it, they would make their way into this weekend’s final against England/The Netherlands. Unfortunately for La Roja, they’ve suffered an early low, with France taking the lead in Munich inside the opening 10 minutes.

In the fifth minute, Spain passed up a huge opportunity to score, with Fabian Ruiz blazes a header over the bar after great work from Lamine Yamal. France created a very similar chance three minutes later, with Kylian Mbappe setting up Randal Kolo Muani, and the PSG striker succeeded where his club teammate did not.

France lead after only eight minutes!
