Albania – the shape of the team and its analysis:
“The Red and Blacks” were able to repeat their main success in history, making it to the Euro, last year. They had played only at the championship 2016 before. Sylvinho’s wards were able to win control matches with Liechtenstein and Azerbaijan, and also scored 3 goals each before the trip to Germany.
Speaking about the group, the team was an obvious outsider. Nevertheless, it played well against Italy, quickly opening the score and almost equalized in the end of the game. The team succeeded in the struggle with Croatia: it conceded 2 in response after the own goal. Still, Gjasula, who hit his team’s goal, also scored in the 95th minute of the game.
Spain – the shape of the team and its analysis:
A year ago, “the Furia Roja” was able to enlarge its list of trophies by winning the Nations League. And the team went through the qualification with the traditional confidence, even though it lost to Scotland on the away field. The team approached the Euro in a good mood, winning devastatingly against Andorra and Northern Ireland, in 2024, after the failures in March (there happened a failure in the game against Colombia and a draw in the confrontation with Brazil).
As for the tournament in Germany, de la Fuente’s players started as confidently as possible. They scored 3 goals in the battle against Croatia in the first half – that’s actually how the match ended. Speaking about the struggle with Italy, the team had complete control of the game, and only Donnarumma’s saves led to the final 1-0 result.
