Toni Kroos edges closer to retirement.. The next match may be his last. Toni Kroos is always more calm than the rest of us. He will do his best if he can help it and maybe we will see him continue for two more matches.

This Takes the Cake
Real Madrid tend to be linked with anyone who can kick a football. It comes with the territory. Every now and then a rumour comes up and you laugh out loud at the absurdity of it all.
Yoro Goes YOLO
⚪️ Leny Yoro keeps giving priority to Real Madrid, now waiting on clubs to agree on deal.
Real Madrid also informed that he will not sign new deal at Lille, no chance — the strategy is clear.

The two best teams go head to head with Spain being favourites given their form in the tournament so far. This will be Spain’s toughest test yet. Spain have more speed and efficiency in attack while implementing a seamless possession scheme.

France v Portugal
:format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25518499/2160086497.jpg)
France will be favourites going into their game against Portugal. Both teams have been rather underwhelming in their inability to kill off opposition. France have scored 1 goal from the penalty spot while the other two goals have been own goals. Expect this one to be a low-scoring affair.

He’s a legend, big respect for everything he has done. He inspired a generation, including me.” pic.twitter.com/OwFC8jf2xj
