Yamal’s incredible strike from outside the penalty area equalized the match, making him the youngest scorer in men’s European Championship history.
Dani Olmo then scored the winning goal, capitalizing on a deflection off French defender Jules Kounde.
Despite Kylian Mbappe’s late attempt, Spain’s resilient defense held strong, securing their spot in the Berlin final against either England or the Netherlands.
This marks Spain’s first men’s final appearance since their 2012 Euro triumph. The stage is set for a thrilling conclusion to Euro 2024!
