Portugal were on fire in the semis, stunning Germany in their own backyard. Ronaldo, at 40, still delivering magic—slotting home the winner after Francisco Conceição’s brilliant equalizer.
Spain, on the other hand, turned their semi into chaos and art, edging France 5-4 in a rollercoaster thriller. But can their shaky defense hold up against Ronaldo and Co?
🇵🇹 Portugal (4-3-3)
Diogo Costa; Nélson Semedo, Rúben Dias, Gonçalo Inácio, Nuno Mendes; Vitinha, Bruno Fernandes, João Neves; Bernardo Silva, Cristiano Ronaldo, Pedro Neto
Expect Vitinha to start after his impactful cameo vs Germany.
🇪🇸 Spain (4-2-3-1)
Unai Simón; Pedro Porro, Le Normand, Huijsen, Cucurella; Pedri, Fabián Ruiz; Lamine Yamal, Mikel Merino, Nico Williams; Oyarzabal
De la Fuente is likely sticking with the same squad that outscored France.
Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal captain):
“We’re confident. Spain are probably the best team in the world right now, but we have our strengths. We beat Germany, which we hadn’t done in years. Why not Spain next?”
Roberto Martínez (Portugal coach):
“Spain still control games with possession like always—but now they’ve added explosive pace with Nico and Yamal. It’s a complete team. But we’re ready.”
Luis de la Fuente (Spain coach):
“Portugal are fast, smart, and versatile—just like us. It’ll be tight, but we’ll try to surprise them with our quality and flexibility.”
Mikel Oyarzabal (Spain forward):
“I’m staying calm, enjoying the moment with friends and family. If I’m picked, I’ll be ready to give everything.”
