They were decided from 12 yards and the four nations competing certainly produced in the shootout as only two spot kicks were errant. The quality there can\u2019t be disputed.<\/p>\n<p>The quarter-finals did offer even contests across the board and sequences of open-play magic, but the sense of occasion and the incoherence of some outfits meant fans were forced to slog through much of the action \u2013 in two games anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Here are four things we learned from the Euro 2024 quarter-finals.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_okzemos4e\">Cold-blooded England<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/01j28y4gfkk6cv14nkwb.jpg\" alt=\"Ivan Toney\" title=\"Ivan Toney\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Eyes on the ba\u2014 goalkeeper \/ James Baylis \u2013 AMA\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>England\u00a0were hardly transformed against Switzerland but they did produce a decent opening 45 minutes \u2013 albeit one devoid of chance creation.<\/p>\n<p>For a period, it looked as if Gareth Southgate\u2019s side would be heading home after they\u2019d allowed the game to drift. Breel Embolo opened the scoring but Bukayo Saka took matters into his own hands to swiftly equalise. A nervy conclusion to the bout ensued with Switzerland coming on strong in extra time, but England held on for penalties.<\/p>\n<p>There was once a time when the five words which concluded the above paragraph would have been met with an existential dread. Penalty shootouts once brought out inhibition and unbearable anxiety, but this set of players are seemingly immune to any sort of pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Five perfect penalties and Jordan Pickford\u2019s early denial of Manuel Akanji\u00a0sent the Three Lions through\u00a0to their third semi-final at a major tournament under Southgate.<\/p>\n<p>They remain tactically unsure and are certainly flawed, but England\u2019s ability to dig in and deliver when it matters will serve them well as they aim to secure their first ever European Championship trophy. Southgate\u2019s group are embracing the occasion.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_p2x6wun0o\">This is Didier Deschamps\u2019 France<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/01j28y664hwj32gqkmgc.jpg\" alt=\"Didier Deschamps\" title=\"Didier Deschamps\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>France are yet to score a goal from open play \/ BSR Agency\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>Didier Deschamps\u2019\u00a0France\u00a0were once defined as \u2018pragmatic\u2019, but the former water carrier has drifted so far into the realm of caution and conservatism this summer that labelling this French side pragmatic would be doing the word a disservice.<\/p>\n<p>With centre-backs littered across the backline and three holders offering midfield protection, Deschamps\u2019 France are far from an inspiring watch. Their defensive resilience can\u2019t be denied, though, and they seemingly always find a way.<\/p>\n<p>Some projected a knockout stage uptick after an uninspiring group stage but, after outlasting Belgium and\u00a0overcoming Portugal on spot-kicks\u00a0without scoring an open-play goal, it\u2019s fair to say that\u00a0<em>this<\/em>\u00a0is what to expect from the 2018 World Cup winners.<\/p>\n<p>No major upsurge is going to arrive soon, but they\u2019ve got as good a chance as any of winning this competition for the first time since 2000.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_pvvk7d2w4\">Spain can fill Pedri void<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/01j28ydv5w9scmevaysn.jpg\" alt=\"Dani Olmo\" title=\"Dani Olmo\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Dani Olmo opened the scoring against Germany after replacing Pedri \/ Alex Livesey\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>Spain\u00a0are certainly the most impressive team left in the tournament, but they have been dealt a blow in the aftermath of their quarter-final triumph over Germany.<\/p>\n<p>A cynical but in no way malicious lunge from Toni Kroos \u2013 which remarkably didn\u2019t warrant a booking \u2013 on\u00a0Pedri\u00a0has ended the Barcelona midfielder\u2019s tournament. After dazzling at Euro 2020, Pedri\u2019s career has stagnated due to a litany of setbacks and his latest knee injury is set to sideline him for six weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year-old is thus set to add to the\u00a083 games he\u2019s missed for club and country\u00a0through injury.<\/p>\n<p>His absence does hinder Luis de la Fuente\u2019s side, but Spain are well-stocked in reserve and Pedri\u2019s potential replacements provided the goods against Germany. The versatile Dani Olmo replaced Pedri and took up a free-roaming function in Stuttgart. Olmo opened the scoring and was named Player of the Match for his contribution, but it was another midfield substitute in Mikel Merino who produced the decisive moment in extra time.<\/p>\n<p>Merino was fighting for a starting berth pre-tournament but De la Fuente opted for Fabian Ruiz and the PSG star has enjoyed a superb campaign. In Pedri\u2019s absence, Merino could get the nod in Spain\u2019s engine room. The 28-year-old has starred for Real Sociedad in recent years, emerging as one of La Liga\u2019s most reliable and consistent midfield performers.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_q28rj6mmy\">Wout Weghorst is the Netherlands\u2019 difference-maker<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/01j28yf32k0qamq82c41.jpg\" alt=\"Wout Weghorst\" title=\"Wout Weghorst\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Wout Weghorst changed the game for the Netherlands \/ Soccrates Images\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>Despite their knack for producing them, the Netherlands has a rather uncomfortable relationship with the target man striker.<\/p>\n<p>The Dutch are a proud bunch still synonymous with the swashbuckling style pioneered by Johan Cruyff\u2019s Total Footballers. There\u2019s no room for a limited big man as part of an ever-rotating collective, but recent Netherlands outfits, including Ronald Koeman\u2019s current iteration, have been far cries from the Total Football utopia.<\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands team on display in Germany has neat pieces with controllers in the middle of the park, but they lean closer to the functional unit of 2010 than Cruyff\u2019s team of 1974 \u2013 both World Cup finalists.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, many have come around to the idea of Wout Weghorst. Having scored the winner off the bench on Matchday 1 against Poland, there have been calls for Koeman to start the Burnley forward in place of Memphis Depay, who\u2019s closing in on the Netherlands\u2019 all-time scoring record. Koeman has since resisted such cries given his admiration for Depay, but Weghorst has been utilised as his Plan B.<\/p>\n<p>The Dutch were 1-0 behind when the boss pivoted to his target man at half-time. He didn\u2019t get on the scoresheet but served as a much-needed reference point for his side\u2019s playmakers. Weghorst was a presence and was able to compete far better against an aggressive Turkey backline. He helped his side turn the tide and an exceptional defensive clearance prevented the Netherlands from falling 2-0 behind.<\/p>\n<p>There will be cries for Weghorst against England, but another cameo off the bench is likely.<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Euro 2024\u00a0quarter-finals brought about a whopping 450 minutes of action, but that wasn\u2019t necessarily a good thing.
