The Spaniards have so far shown a more than strong performance in the course of the U21 Euro and were thus able to convince. Right in the first group game, a clear 3-0 victory against the Slovenians stood out. The second match day brought the top game with Italy. However, this ended without a goal. In the last group game Spain regained control and scored a well deserved 2-0 victory against the Czech Republic. The preliminary round was thus very successful.
With a record of two wins and a draw, seven points were scored in the group stage. The lead over Italy’s second place in the table was two points. The group winner was Croatia in the quarter-finals. The entire first run lacked pace. Chances of scoring were scarce. Only one or two shots from the second row came through. The first 45 minutes passed without goal. Even after the change of sides, no footballing treats were offered. After a good hour, the Spaniards got better and took control. In the 65th minute of the game, Puado, who had just been traded in, netted for the lead. After Guillamon fouled Biuk, the Croats were awarded a penalty. This turned Ivanusec into a flattering balancing act in the aftermath. It went into overtime. Thanks to Puado’s goal (110th) Spain prevailed there 2-1 and entered the semi-finals.
The team of coach Luis de la Fuente is unbeaten in the previous competition and looks forward to a record of three victories and a draw. The group stage was overcome without conceding. Seven goals were to be scored in the entire competition and the defensive team only had to concede one goal. Javi Puado is the best attacker in his own ranks with three goals.

The Portuguese made a smooth march in the group phase. The first match day brought a narrow 1-0 victory against Croatia. The second group match was played against England. Here again, coach Rui Jorge’s team prevailed 2-0. The final day of the preliminary round was then played against Switzerland. As a result of this approach, Portugal was able to fulfil its favourite role and achieved a more secure 3-0 victory after 90 minutes.
With nine looted points, the place at the sun jumped out in group D. The advantage over the competition amounted to a total of six meters and in any case represents a very comfortable cushion. The group winner was Italy in the quarter-finals. In a thrilling match, both teams demanded everything. The Portuguese got off to a better start with a 2-0 double pack by Dany Mota. Shortly before the break, Squadra Azzurra scored a goal through Pobega. Only 13 minutes were played after the change of sides, when Goncalo increased Ramos to 3-1. In the end, Italy responded impressively and was compensated by Scamacca and Curtone. In overtime Lovato saw yellow-red. Thus, the Italians acted in undernumbers. A fact Selecao knew how to use. Jota and Conceicao scored a 5-3 victory in the end.
Four victories in four European Championships speak for themselves. So far, the team has achieved the maximum points yield. The preliminary round was contested just like Spain without conceding. In the entire competition, Portugal looks at eleven goals scored and the defence has been conceded three goals. Mota, Conceicao and Trincao are the best attackers in their own ranks with two goals.
