![Spain are a 'winning horse'](https://cdn.magzter.com/1605701739/1720467448/articles/3TeWryrI61720481752375/SPAIN-ARE-A-WINNING-HORSE.jpg)
The battle between the two most successful national sides of the new millennium, today's Euro 2024 semifinal between France and Spain, also showcases two contrasting styles.
Spain have dazzled in Germany, reaching the final-four on the back of the attacking brilliance of wingers Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams.
By contrast France, one of the pre-tournament favourites one-man offensive powerhouse Kylian Mbappe, have ground their way to the semis on the back of solid defence, conceding just one goal in five games.
Spain's 11 goals scored is equal to the most in the tournament alongside hosts Germany, the team they beat in extra-time in the quarterfinal. La Roja have won five from five.
Excluding wins on penalties, no team in Euros history has ever won more than five games in the same tournament.
