But France, Holland and England are doing very well.
There are only three matches left at Euro 2024. What a team! Two semi-finals and a final. The matches ahead of us are Spain vs France and the Netherlands vs England. Great signs: top-class football is expected in these matches. And I want to see the best on the pitch. But unfortunately, not all players will play. The reasons are disqualifications and injuries. Who will miss the round of 16?

Classification
There are only three matches left of Euro 2024! Who will win the tournament?
Spain – France
Robin Le Normand, Daniel Carvajal, Daniel Vivian and Alvaro Morata were all banned before the Euro quarter-final match against Germany. One card and they would miss a possible semi-final. An important point in UEFA regulations: warnings “burn” only at the semi-final stage. Unfortunately for coach Luis de la Fuente, two of his players on the roster received warnings. Le Normand – in the 29th minute, and Carvajal was sent off at the end of extra time. For this reason, both will miss the semi-final against France. The media also reported that Morata received a yellow card when he was already on the bench. But the information turned out to be wrong. Thus, the striker will play against France.
Another problem for Spain is Pedri’s injury. At the start of the match against Germany, Toni Kroos injured him. Because of this, the midfielder was replaced and the 21-year-old will not play again in the tournament. A problem for de la Fuente.

The French were at risk of being disqualified for Ousmane Dembélé, Kylian Mbappé, Antoine Griezmann and Aurélien Tchouameni. But none of them received a yellow card in the match against Portugal. Didier Deschamps will therefore be able to count on all of them for the match against Spain, including Adrien Rabiot, who has served his suspension.

Netherlands – England
Yoei Werman, Yerdi Schouten, Denzel Dumfries and Donyell Malen were all at risk of missing the semi-finals if they received a yellow card. But the Netherlands played the match against Turkey without losing anything and the players’ cards were “burned”. Thus, in the match against England, Ronald Koeman will be able to use any of the team of the tournament.

For England, Kieran Trippier, Kobby Mainu, Conor Gallagher, Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden all came close to reaching the quarter-finals with Switzerland with a yellow card. But in the last game, only Harry Kane received a warning. Good news for Gareth Southgate.
