The Spanish national team defeated the German team and reached the semi-finals of the 2024 European Football Championship.
The Spaniards beat the tournament hosts 2-1 in extra time on Friday.
The match ended with a score of 1:1 in regular time. Dani Olmo scored for the Spaniards (51st minute), while Florian Wirtz (89) scored for the Germans. In the second extra time, a precise header by Mikel Merino (119) brought victory to the Spanish team.
Pedri was injured in the 8th minute of the match in Stuttgart. According to Marca, the Spanish midfielder will not play again at EURO due to a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee.
The Spanish team will play the winner of the Portugal-France match in the semi-finals. The semi-final match will take place on July 9 at the arena in Munich.
Due to an accumulation of yellow cards, the Spanish national team will be without defender Robin Le Normand, as well as Dani Carvajal, who was sent off at the end of the match against Germany.
