'My players are the BEST IN THE WORLD!' 🥇 Spain boss Luis de la Fuente ahead of Germany clash

Spain play host nation Germany on Friday in the quarter-finals of the European Championship in an eagerly-anticipated matchup between two of the best performing sides at the tournament.
There is also a potential record on the line as Spain and Germany have each won three European Championships, better than any other nation.
Two of the most exciting talents will be on show in Spain teenager Lamine Yamal and 21-year-old Germany forward Jamal Musiala.
The winner will advance to face France or Portugal in the semi-final in Munich on Tuesday.
Spain and Germany are the leading scorers at Euro 2024, having netted nine and 10 goals respectively in their four matches.
They have also conjured the most attempts on target.
Spain has never eliminated a host nation, either at a European Championship or the World Cup.
La Roja is the only team to have won all its matches at Euro 2024, beating Croatia, Italy and Albania in the group stage before thumping Georgia 4-1 in the round of 16.
Germany beat Scotland and Hungary but drew against Switzerland before eliminating Denmark.
Germany haven't beaten Spain in a major tournament since a group-stage victory at Euro ’88.
Lamine Yamal, Nico Williams and Fabian Ruiz all missed Spain’s training session on Tuesday, while Aymeric Laporte only jogged once around the field.
However, all are expected to be fit for Friday’s match.
Spain and Germany have only conceded three goals between them.
The only time Spain goalkeeper Unai Simón had to pick the ball out of his net was against Georgia, while Germany conceded against Scotland and Switzerland.
The teams have met 26 times, with Germany winning nine to Spain’s eight.
Spain edge Germany slightly on goals scored with 32 compared to 31.
Three of the last four encounters have finished in a 1-1 draw with the exception being a 6-0 thrashing of Germany by Spain in a UEFA Nations League match in November 2020.
Germany has won all six of its European Championship quarter-finals, Spain has lost five of its nine.

[@ysldaughter3454]

This game makes me so nervous for both countries lol

[@BigKurcaci]

Almost perfect team performance in this tournament so far...

[@user-gc4mk8nv1b]

Don't be so proud of it....because you never know in 48 hours time OR few days time you will say my team is " No Bueno"

[@jamesheuston5066]

I think the team is a work in progress for generation... so eventually this team will win worldcup.. their performance here is a sign that the project is ahead of time..

[@F-F01]

Regardless if we lose against Germany we are proud of how our young generation has played, unlike England which is a team to be embarrassed of the way they play with the talent they’ve got

[@AnotherExtraFist]

Another of those very very big games in football -- anytime Spain plays Germany. Frankly, as a football fan, I cannot get excited about England, Franc, or Portugal. Go Switzerland!

[@jeagle70]

Translator sounds like Beavis and Jughead 😂

[@sabineworner5202]

Best players, than it be even worser if they lose. 🖤❤️💛

[@ksk297]

Thats what a Coach have to say lol

[@superboykevrolf3811]

He's right, 🇪🇦 is superior. Germany is totally overrated. First time since several years they survived group stage.

[@WilhelmMoser-d7x]

HOCHMUT kommt zu Fall

[@ManchesterCitySupremacy]

Let’s see how the French centre backs can cope against Wirtz and Musiala

[@curtischarles5299]

Let's see the germans deal with yamal and nico

[@Josuke217]

Spain winning 2-1 . France winning 1-0 Spain beating France 2-1

[@ManchesterCitySupremacy]

@@curtischarles5299 I hope Spain win

[@EuropeanPOW]

No worries, PORTUGAL will spare France the trouble.

[@ManchesterCitySupremacy]

@@EuropeanPOW I’m talking about Laporte and Le Normand the French centre backs that play to Spain
