Spain and Germany will face this Friday at Stuttgart in the most anticipated matchup of the UEFA Euro 2024. The game has all the ingredients to become a classic considering this could be the final battle for Toni Kroos.

The Spanish squad has been impressive throughout the tournament with four convincing wins over Croatia, Italy, Albania and Georgia. Their explosiveness is remarkable thanks to young stars such as Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal, the possible heir of Lionel Messi at Barcelona.

Then, during the Round of 16 game facing Denmark, two controversial VAR calls gave them a ticket to the next round.
