✅ Spain won the UEFA EURO 2024 on Monday 24 June 2024 defeating Albania at the Düsseldorf Arena in Düsseldorf, Germany. Spain already qualified to the Round of 16 and claim all full 9 points leading Group B. Italy got a late equalizer goal in the 98th minute against Croatia reaching 4 points and qualifying as second of the Group. Spain took the advantage with Ferran Torres and then fails some potential occasions with Torres himself and with Olmo. In the second half Albania builds some dangerous situations with Broja but in the end to celebrate Spain which, despite the turnover, gets clean Sheet and the three points.
Spain have won all eight previous matches against Albania (31 goals scored, 3 conceded). Among the national teams against which Spain has always found success, against no other has it boasted more matches – eight wins out of eight also against Liechtenstein and Malta.
The UEFA EURO 2024 Group B Standing shows Spain in the 1st position with 9 points and a positive goal difference of +5. Italy in the 2nd position with 4 points and a goal difference of “0”. Croatia in the 3rd position with 2 point and a negative goal difference of -3. Albania in the 4th position also with 1 point and a negative goal difference of -2.

✅ Stats before the game: Albania have conceded at least two goals in each of their nine meetings with Spain in all competitions. The 9-0 defeat in the European Championship qualifiers in December 1990 remains the largest ever for the Albanian national team in an official match. Albania have scored the first goal in each of their two EURO 2024 matches, although they have yet to find success (D1, L1). No nation has ever scored the first goal in three consecutive European Championship matches without managing to win any of them.
Spain could win the first three matches of a European Championship for the second time in the competition, having done so in 2008 – an edition which they then won (1-0 against Germany in the final). Albania have conceded two goals in each of their last two matches, both at EURO 2024 (1-2 v Italy, 2-2 v Croatia), after having conceded two or more goals only once in their previous 14 matches in all competitions. The Albanians have not conceded at least two goals in three consecutive matches since a series of five between October 2016 and June 2017. In the last match against Italy, Spain gained possession of the ball in the final third of the field on 10 occasions: it is the highest figure for the Spaniards in a European Championship match since the 2008 quarter-finals, again against the Azzurri (13).

34% Ball Possession SWITZERLAND and 66% Ball Possession GERMANY
Switzerland 1 – 1 Germany
28′ Dan Ndoye 92′ Niclas Füllkrug
Switzerland and Germany ended the UEFA EURO 2024 Matchday 3 game with a draw on Sunday 23 June 2024 at the Frankfurt Arena in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It’s a thriller, Germany equalized in the final. Switzerland had to settle for second place. Germany earns a potentially softer draw in the round of 16, while Switzerland will face the second in Group B. Italy is a serious candidate to meet the Swiss in the direct elimination phase of these European Championships.
Swiss lead in the first half scored by Ndoye, equalizer in the final minutes of injury time by the usual Fullkrug, with his 13th goal for the national team. Andrich and Vargas’ goals were also canceled out during the match.
This was the first meeting between Switzerland and Germany in a major tournament since the 1966 World Cup, when West Germany beat Switzerland 5-0 in the group stage. They also met in the 1938 World Cup (Switzerland won 4-2 in the round of 16 replay) and 1962 (West Germany won 2-1 in the group stage).

✅ Stats before the game: Switzerland are unbeaten in their last three matches against Germany (W1, D2), with these three matches seeing 16 goals scored, an average of 5.3 per match – the Swiss had lost 16 of their previous 18 matches against the Germans (D2). Germany has scored in 52 of 53 matches against Switzerland in all competitions. The only exception was the 0-0 draw in the April 1968 friendly. Switzerland has not lost their final group stage match in any of their last eight appearances in a major international tournament (W5, D3); the last time it happened was EURO 2004 (1-3 vs France). Germany could become the third host nation to win all three group stage matches at a European Championship, after the Netherlands in 2000 and France in 1984; furthermore, it would be the first host nation to do so in a major international tournament since Germany itself in the 2006 World Cup (excluding EURO 2020, which had 11 host nations).
