France national football team

A few days ago I read an article in El País by German philosopher Wolfram Eilenberger called: ‘The Best Version of Europe’.

Spain should not underestimate Switzerland. Teams that clinch unexpected wins tend to have nothing to lose and everything to gain, notes Alfredo Relaño.

"Spain’s up-and-down journey in this tournament has only served to strengthen this group of players as they head into the quarter finals," writes Alfredo Relaño.
