With good defense system, France has a good foundation for their defensive prioritizing approach and can beat Spain in the semi final with an OG from Spanish player or beat Spain through penalties. Spain has Unai Simon, a good goalkeeper for penalties but to win it, they need their players shot well too. French players shown that they were well prepared for penalties and did it with high confidence.

Why do I feel like everyone is expecting that Spain against France match will lead to extra times, many people and analysts are saying the game will be very closed from both sides and we won’t see any opportunities of scoring. Personally, I would say that one of the teams will score very early and the match will become very open for both teams to score.
Both teams have strong defense, beside tricky attacking gameplay.

If I would bet on this match, my money will go to Spain for having a better organized team this year, young players with good speed and skills to beat France. Mbapee camarades are not in shape for defending against Spain. So I prefer taking the risk of betting on Spain with good outcome than France that I would say have more chances in penalties.

According to the player's condition we must say that Spain is better. In this tournament who are ahead in the performance of the each players in recent times are able to retain the victory. This is just speculation though. But considering the statistics, of course, Spain cannot be keep down in any way. Another big problem is that France's Kylian Mbappe is not physically fit. He has to play with a mask because of his broken nose. As much as he wants to play well, it must cost him to give his best. Moreover, there will be panic in the field when the game starts. France coach thinks that Spain will definitely be under pressure if Mbappe is on the field. But I would definitely bet on Spain.

Spain have been one of the best team in the ongoing European Championship if not the best and their ability to eliminate the host nation Germany who was also incredible with their performances makes them one of the favorite teams that can win the European title this summer. France on the other side have been short of the expectations of many because before the kickoff of the the tournament, France was regarded as the favorites because of the quality of players in the France squad as well as the depth of the team. Since the start of the tournament, France have never scored a goal from open play which I think is another reason Spain will will go into their semi finals game against them as the favorite.
Fir Kylian Mbappe who I know will post a big threat to the Spanish team, I think Spain have the needed quality of defenders to stop him even when I know it's always difficult to stop Kylian Mbappe. It'll be a very big game between the two teams but one thing is sure and that's the fact that one team will leave the tournament after that game
