The Athletic profiles the finalists’ strengths and weaknesses, the key battles, and the many sub-plots in your definitive tactical guide to the Euro 2024 final. The dynamic duo are responsible for 46 per cent of Spain’s total attempted take-ons this tournament. What a talent 👏🇪🇸 pic.twitter.com/IRJignOqCA — UEFA U17 EURO (@UEFAUnder21) July 9, 2024Beyond his shooting, Yamal’s creative threat has stood out the most. This forced the Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon to frequently launch the ball long, often conceding possession in the process. Spain might be the standout favourites but England will arrive in Berlin as the more experienced nation in recent major tournaments.

Headed into Tuesday’s semifinal against Canada, Messi had gone four games without finding the back of the net, including a failed Panenka in a penalty kick shootout against Ecuador in the quarterfinal. The Athletic was at the match to dissect the key plays…How did Messi score his first goal of Copa America 2024? Argentina’s second goal started with a Messi burst into the Canada penalty area. Messi is now onto 109 goals by scoring his first goal of this summer’s Copa America to double the Argentine lead against Canada. Messi, 37, is 21 goals behind the record holder, his great rival, the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo who has 130 goals.

On the final night of Copa America Group C play, the U.S. men’s national team had to match or better Panama’s result against Bolivia. The challenge was that the U.S. would have to do it against unbeaten group leaders Uruguay.

Thursday night’s Copa América contest between the U.S. men’s national team and Panama was not lacking for drama. The result puts the U.S.’s Copa América on life support as they prepare to close out the group against Uruguay on Monday in Kansas City. 12′: USMNT goalkeeper Matt Turner knocked to the ground after challenge from Cesar Blackman. Weah will now miss the group finale against Uruguay, and winger is one of the thinnest positions for the USMNT.

Messi was off to the side of the pitch for a few minutes in the first half. Argentina pressed on with one or two offensive plays without him, as Argentina’s trainer worked on Messi’s upper right leg area. Chile did not record a shot in the first half (their first came in the 72nd minute) as Argentina dominated possession. But victory came for Argentina after two quick corner attempts – the first with Messi yet again attempting the elusive Olimpico. Argentina’s final game is against Peru (Hard Rock Stadium, Miami, FL) and Canada face Chile (Inter & Co Stadium, Orlando, FL).

CNN —It was the perfect start for Christian Pulisic and the US at this year’s Copa América, with the forward inspiring his side to a 2-0 win against Bolivia on Sunday. The 25-year-old then turned provider, setting up Folarin Balogun for the team’s second goal just before the break inside Arlington’s AT&T Stadium. All round a pretty dominant performance,” Pulisic told FOX Soccer after the game. Getting the early goal really took the pressure off,” US head coach Gregg Berhalter told FOX Soccer after the game, praising Pulisic’s “dangerous” performance. “It’s always important to win your first game, we talked about progressing and improving our performance throughout the tournament so I think it’s a good starting point.”

Meetings between Spain and Italy rarely disappoint and this one was no exception — even if it was an own goal that decided the contest. Victory sees Spain progress to the knockout stage as group winners, while for Italy it’s all to play for against Croatia on Monday. The one-way traffic continued after half-time, and Spain got to 11 efforts at goal without finding the net. Some will focus on Donnarumma pushing Morata’s header into a helpless Calafiori’s path for Spain’s goal. As the team in front of him were run ragged by Williams and Yamal, the 25-year-old Donnarumma kept things dignified.

Portugal’s blushes were spared as they came from behind to earn victory over the Czech Republic in their opening match at Euro 2024. AdvertisementInstead, it was the Czech Republic who took the lead — with yet another strike from outside the box. They dominated the ball and Czech Republic were happy enough with that, but Portugal never really clicked, despite deploying an admirable fluid system. Martinez’s side also had eight corners in the first half but the steely Czech Republic held firm, frustrating their opponents.

Aitana Bonmatí made it 3-1 with some wonderful footwork that left at least two Swiss defenders lying on the grass around her. That project now will continue for at least one more game, and with the players brimming with confidence.

The Germans are looking to bounce back with a win over South Korea, which, while mathematically alive, is most likely exiting the Women’s World Cup after its final game. Colombia leads the group with a commanding 6 points, but needs to avoid a rout by Morocco, which might be able to advance with a win. South Korea vs. GermanyGermany, surprised by a last-minute defeat against Colombia, is coming off its first loss in the group stage since 1995. South Korea can only advance by defeating Germany by five goals or more. With that win, Colombia rose to the top of the group and all but guaranteed its berth in the round of 16.

James Elsby/Associated PressNouhaila Benzina, a 25-year-old defender for a pioneering Morocco team appearing in its first World Cup, became the first player to wear a hijab in the tournament when she started her team’s 1-0 victory against South Korea on Sunday. Morocco’s presence at the Women’s World Cup already has yielded a string of notable moments. And its first victory was a monumental achievement that kept alive its hopes for something even bigger: a place in the knockout stages. Several players on the Moroccan squad were born or raised in France, but Benzina plays for a club team in Morocco.

The next stretch of games in the Women’s World Cup will see several favorites to win the tournament look to build some momentum — or, in Canada’s case, find some — and display the dominance for which they’re known. Spain, which cruised in its opener, will look to repeat the feat just like Japan did on Wednesday in its win over Costa Rica, 2-0. Spain opened the World Cup in impressive style against Costa Rica. “We weren’t always clicking on the field,” the United States co-captain Alex Morgan said this week. And therein lies the problem facing the United States: that sturdiness, discipline and organization will be tough to break down.

Japan wants to get back in the contender conversation after last reaching a World Cup quarterfinal in 2015, and started with a dominant win Saturday against Zambia. England vs. Haiti Aside from the United States, England may be facing the greatest expectations of any team in the tournament. But some of those names are missing from England’s current World Cup roster, after the Euro captain Leah Williamson and the star forward Beth Mead both tore anterior cruciate ligaments. At the 2019 World Cup, the team lost to Italy in the round of 16, a stage it hopes to reach again this year, unlikely as that is. According to their coach, Shui Qingxia, the Chinese are looking at this World Cup as an opportunity to reintroduce themselves to the world stage.

CNN —After watching their team dismantle Zambia 5-0, several Japanese spectators won fans of their own as they stayed behind to clean the stands following their team’s opening Women’s World Cup match. Footage posted by the BBC showed several Japanese fans walking around the stadium with trash bags, picking up garbage left in the stands. Japanese fans have become known in recent years for their efforts to clean stands after they did so in matches at the men’s 2022 and 2018 World Cup and they were praised on social media for their efforts. Japan's players line up and acknowledge the crowd following their 5-0 win. Victory against Zambia, thanks to goals from Mina Tanaka, Jun Endo, Riko Ueki and a brace from Hinata Miyazawa, kicked off Japan’s World Cup campaign in style.

CNN —Japan reached the World Cup knockout stages for the fourth time on Thursday – by what appeared to be a matter of millimeters. But it’s Japan’s second goal that has been a topic of fierce debate in the aftermath of the game, specifically regarding whether the ball crossed the goal line before Kaoru Mitoma’s cutback pass to Ao Tanaka.
