The final quarter-final match was played between hosts France and dark horse Iceland.

Iceland appeared in the quarter-finals as a big package, and France were clearly less happy to meet the Three Meows than England, who were eliminated by them.

Matuidi assisted Olivier Giroud in the 11th minute to open the scoring

, and then Griezmann assisted Pogba to extend the lead, before the end of the first half, Griezmann assisted to score twice, it was Payet who scored, France's lead extended to 3 goals, and at the beginning of the second half

, Pogba assisted Griezmann

to score a goal, France 4 goals ahead!

France had sealed the victory and Iceland let go, their first goal finally arrived in the 55th minute, and

France beat Iceland 5-2 to advance to the semi-finals.

For the first time in Iceland's history, Iceland qualified for the main European Championship, reaching the quarter-finals in the first and knocking out the mighty England, and they can leave with their heads held high despite the defeat.

After the quarter-finals, the semi-final match will follow

, Portugal's opponent is Wales, and the former team-mates of Cristiano Ronaldo and Bale will only be able to reach the final alone!

Germany will face hosts France, and this match is also seen as an early final.

France won the European Championship in 1984 and 2000, one less than Germany, and the two teams are equal in terms of historical records.

On the day of the match, at the pre-match press conference, France coach Deschamps said that the team's goal is to win the championship and must win no matter who the opponent is.

As hosts, France have home advantage, the team is full of morale, the youngster Griezmann is in hot form, and the whole team is confident of beating Germany.

It is worth mentioning that since Jiang Ge joined the German team, Germany has never lost any official match in which he participated, and it can solve the opponent within 90 minutes!

Deschamps hopes his team will break the record, admitting that Jiang Ge is strong, his own team is not weak, and football is not a one-man sport.

The beautiful Verodrom Stadium, home of Ligue 1 team Marseille.

Originally built in 1935, this magnificent stadium has undergone three renovations and has a capacity of 67,394 people, making it the largest club football stadium in France.

Although Greater Paris is more famous than Marseille, their home stadium, the Parc des Princes, has a capacity of just over 40,000, far less grand than the Stade de Vélodrom.

Tonight, the stadium is packed, with the vast majority of French fans, with German fans receiving only 10,000 tickets.

The starting 11 list announced by Deschamps is

: goalkeeper: Lowry;

Defenders: Evra, Umtiti, Koscielny, Sarnia;

Back: Matuidi, Pogba;

Midfielders: Payet, Griezmann, Sissoko;

Forward: Olivier Giroud.

The starting formation of the French team is 4-2-3-1, Kante is still famous, and has not yet secured the starting position, the French team can be described as full of talent.

Loew's starting line-up for this game has been slightly adjusted.

Goalkeeper: Neuer;

Defenders: Kimmich, Boateng, Herbedes, Correll;

Back: Kroos, Schweinsteiger;

Midfielders: Draxler, Müller, Sane;

Forward: Jiang Ge.

Hosts are not easy to play, especially if they are so strong, it is fitting that this match is called an early final.

Jiang Ge from 2022 remembers the final result of this match, Griezmann scored one goal in the first and second half, and France eliminated Germany 2-0.

This parallel world will not simply repeat the development trajectory of Jiang Ge's original world, which is also the meaning of his existence, of course, he hopes to lead the German team to the final championship, so that he can retire with dignity.

In the past 15 years, France and Germany have met six times, five warm-up matches and one World Cup main match, and France has not lost except for the World Cup and one warm-up match.

The referee of this match is Rizzoli, a famous referee from Italy.

In the JG Sports live broadcast room, the commentators invited by Zhan Jun tonight are Zhang Lu and General Fan.

"With Germany playing the 2014 World Cup winner and the young French team preparing for the next World Cup, the semi-finals of this European Championship are just around the corner, let's wait and see who gets the last ticket to the top of Europe!"

After Zhan Jun finished his opening remarks, Zhang Lu continued:

"Compared with the well-staffed French team, there are many absent personnel on the German side, the defensive core Hummels accumulated yellow card suspension, midfielder Khedira was absent due to injury, and Rocket Royce Jr. was said to be unwell and could only sit on the bench, but fortunately, Jiang Ge was in good condition and appeared in the starting lineup unexpectedly."

"There are many players on the French side, especially Griezmann, this European Championship is eye-catching, it is said that he and Jiang Ge are good friends, it seems that only one of these good friends can reach the final." General Fan was a little incoherent.

"Coach Fan, which team are you more optimistic about this game?" Zhan Jun asked.

"It has to be Germany, but it's a bit difficult for them to get through this game." General Fan said confidently.

General Fan is a diehard fan of Jiang Ge, and he will unconditionally support Jiang Ge at every moment, and Zhan Jun is equivalent to asking in vain.

When it was Zhang Lu's turn, he replied: "This game may go into extra time or penalty shootout, both sides are not bad in scoring ability, France is no longer the same France in the World Cup in Brazil, Germany has also changed some new people. "

In the small talk of the three, the game started in sync.

France kicked off first, Griezmann kicked the ball to Pogba behind

, Tony didn't rush to pass the ball forward, handed the ball to full-back Patrice Evra, and the players on both sides scattered.

Patrice Evra pushed along the touchline and was cut off by Sane when he passed the ball to Matuidi

, but fortunately the French players were very dense in this area, Sane could not form an effective breakthrough with the ball, and the ball returned to the feet of the French team.

The two sides played back and forth for 30 minutes, each getting three chances but failed to score

, it is worth mentioning that the German team shot all three shots on target, and the French goalkeeper Lowry was in excellent form, saving one of Jiang Ge's must-score goals.

"Judging from the first 30 minutes of the game, if it weren't for the color of the shirts of the players on both sides, I would have thought it was France who wore the white shirts." General Fan teased with a smile.

"Director Fan, how do you say this?"

"The French team, known as African mercenaries, is obviously stronger and has slightly rough foot technology, while the players recruited by Loew are not dominant in physical confrontation, but their foot technology is very delicate!" General Fan replied.

"That's right, compared with the tall German players we remember, this German team, especially the midfield, is obviously not hard enough." Zhang Lu echoed.

"In the first 30 minutes, the German team had the upper hand and should pass more to Jiang Ge, after all, he is the one who can really solve the problem in the midfield."

Near the end of the first half, a familiar scene still happened.

Piggy was caught by the bottom line referee in the big penalty area, and the referee Rizzoli decisively blew a penalty.

Familiar scene, Griezmann stands on the penalty spot.
