The first semi-final match of Euro 2024 between Spain and France has been scheduled for Tuesday, 9 July. One French fan decided to propose a very original lineup before the game. See for yourself.

Only four teams remain in the race for the final triumph at Euro 2024: Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands. Their presence in the semi-finals is not surprising.

The first semi-final match is scheduled for Tuesday, 9 July, at 20:00. In Munich, there were fans from Spain and France. The internet went buzzing over one French fan.

The reason? SportSync, among others, posted a video on his profile showing a fan who decided to help French coach Didier Deschamps.

This individual proposed the starting lineup for France but did so in an unusual way, on his... body, specifically his stomach. One must admit, the fan had good intuition as the French coach chose the same players.

Although the French team reached the semi-finals, they were repeatedly criticised for their performance. And it's no surprise, as despite reaching this stage, the French team did not score a single goal from open play. Their only scorer was Kylian Mbappe, who converted a penalty in the match against Poland. The other goals were the opponents' own goals.

Although the French broke through in the 9th minute, thanks to a goal by Randal Kolo Muani, they ultimately bid farewell to the tournament. A little over a quarter of an hour later, Spain was already leading, and no more goals were scored; the match ended with their 2-1 victory.
