This peak showdown, Spain in the second half of the first city, Germany at the last moment to equalize the score, the game into extra time. In extra time, both teams were hoping to score the final goal, and in the 106th minute, Musiara's powerful long-range shot was blocked by Cucurella's arm, which was not indicated by referee Anthony Taylor at the time.
At that time, a replay of the broadcast footage clearly showed that Cucurella's arm expanded the defensive area and, despite the recovery action, also changed the trajectory of the ball. Surprisingly, VAR did not intervene in this controversial decision.

According to the rules, this is an obvious handball, Germany should be eligible for a penalty, but some fans explained that referee Anthony Taylor did not award the Spanish player handball, whether there were German players in the offside position before this, but the broadcast footage did not replay.
Spain escaped with a late header from Sergio Merino to beat Germany 2-1 and advance to the last four.

In this regard, UEFA responded on the official website of the European Cup, that is, refused to replay the match, and also uploaded a preview article about Spain VS France in advance, indicating where to watch the semi-final, kick-off time, possible lineup, etc., a specific list of what fans need to know about Spain VS France.
From the above official website preview, the attitude of UEFA is very obvious, that is, it is impossible to agree to the petition requirements of hundreds of thousands of German fans, and the next will arrange two semi-finals according to the results of the game and the promoted team.
