This will be a repeat of the Euro 2008 final, which they won 1-0.   Wow, it is also a rematch of the best group stage match of the FIFA 2022 Men’s World Cup. Any favorites?

The two teams met in EURO 2024 qualifying, with Spain winning both matches with an aggregate score of 10-2 (7-1 away, 3-1 at home) – in fact, the defeat was 7- 1 remains the only time ever that Georgia has conceded seven goals in an international match. Georgia’s only success against Spain came in a friendly match played in June 2016 at the Coliseum Stadium in Getafe: 1-0 scored by Tornike Okriashvili. Spain has been eliminated in the round of 16 in three of its four previous participations in a major international tournament (European Championship or World Cup), losing on penalties in both the 2022 World Cup (vs Morocco) and the 2018 World Cup (vs Russia) and 2- 0 against Italy at EURO 2016. Georgia reached the knockout stage in its first participation in a major international tournament (European or World Cup). Since the quarter-finals were introduced at EURO 1996, only three teams have reached this stage on their European Championship debut – Croatia in 1996, Wales and Iceland at EURO 2016. Spain kept a clean sheet in all three of their EURO 2024 group stage matches; the last time the Red Furies recorded four clean sheets in the same major international tournament (European or World) dates back to 2012 (a series of five), the very last time they won the continental tournament.
