Crazy how the narratives pre-tournament versus now have changed.

[BC-mjgj]

People who watch La Liga are not surprised that Nico is this good, also Cucurella was a hot prospect in his youth days at Barca, he improved a lot at Getafe and was excellent at Brighton. To judge any player for their Chelsea performance is a dumb take but not a surprise coming out from a clown Frank Lebeouf and the majority of these pundits who don’t watch any football outside of the premier league.

Home crowd advantage is big in knockout football . Germany has a huge advantage over Spain. .expect them to win tonight

[ezraezra]

Spain vs Germany is basically Real Madrid vs Manchester City of the Euros. Whoever wins the game will be an outright winner of the entire thing.
I'm rooting for Germany so that we have a possibility of 1974 World Cup Final repeat vs the Netherlands or even all-Berlin Final vs Turkey!

Nico Williams is the best player in this team. Lamine has been good. But Nico is at another level.

The English speaking media is completely ignorant. Nothing outside the EPL exists to them. The French guy saying he didn’t see Nico Williams coming, he obviously never watches La liga, and Steve Mac talking about Bilbao not having money. Bilbao pays their players really really well they have plenty of cash. The reason that cash doesn’t translate to “winning” teams is because of their only basque player policy. Embarrassing for these people to be “experts”

This will be a cracker. Spain have been by far the best team at this Tournament

[Pepinyo]

Anything can happen, but the last time Germany beat Spain in an official match was 36 years ago. I was kinda hoping someone brought that up.

[eL--RaL]

Yamal & Nico vs Musiala & Wirtz 🥲
The future of football is in safe hands 🔥

[Toracube]

Shots on goal Spain 82..Germany 72…..how many have England had so far ?!!

[xspookydemon]

So Spain haven’t lost to Germany since 1988? That’s crazy and people think Germany will win tomorrow? It’s most likely going to be a Spain win. Rodri will dominate that midfield.

ESPN FC bringing out the big dog Macca!

[Offsoap]

Spain has risen to the challenge..perhaps you pundits should re-write your narrative

[emmanuel]

This is a disgrace. They didn't even take time to talk about germany. Musiala have being the player of the tournament so far. This guys are clowns

[AlexOjideagu]

It amazes me how many people are totally overlooking Spain's defensive issues. Plus their wastefulness despite creating
tons of chances. Georgia caught them at least 3 times on the break and got a goal out of 1. Georgia just lacked any quality to score. But the remaining teams do have it.

[angusmacaskill]

Ruiz has been amazing in a wonderful Spain midfield.

Germany 🇩🇪 will win that one
Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺

[MafiaTheViper_Ent]

I think spain will win because i dont think germany fullbacks can stop those boys tbh..

[monkey]

Spain for me. I think they'll swarm all over Kroos like they did to Pirlo in 2012. I'm backing Germany though because they're my sweepstake team.

[P.K...]

Dan Thomas is bayern and Germany hater im not surprised 😒...and Switzerland will knock out England on Saturday
