Spain and Germany are facing off in the quarterfinals of the Euro 2024 championship.
After just 8 minutes of play, a very unfortunate event occurred for "La Roja."
Bundesteam veteran Toni Kroos brutally fouled Pedri. The medics' efforts were in vain: the Barcelona midfielder could not continue the match and had to leave the field. Dani Olmo came on as a substitute for Pedri.
Prior to this match, the Barcelona midfielder had played 3 matches for Spain in the Euros, providing one assist.
Interestingly, Spain is on a six-match winning streak, while Germany is unbeaten in their last 8 matches.
