Quarter-final: 2 July vs Italy (Munich)

In his latest column for EURO 2020, the former midfielder praises the courage of Spain's conviction but warns that patience may be required against a Switzerland team with a striker in "red-hot form".

For me the most impressive thing about this set of Spain players is how they have overcome all the obstacles put in front of them from day one. It is quite remarkable the way they have bounced back, showing their mental strength and capabilities to follow Luis Enrique's game plan with the utmost conviction.

The victory over Croatia was, in my opinion, Spain's best game at EURO 2020 in terms of overall performance, but you cannot take anything for granted. If you rest on your laurels then you will be in trouble, and I do not think Spain will be doing that.

Spain team-mates quiz
To go really far in a tournament you need to keep things tight at the back and the next thing for Spain is to ensure that they keep sides out. They have found their shooting boots and now it is time to ensure the other end is taken care of.

Haris Seferović, who was outstanding against France, is a great player both with his feet and in the air. Against Poland and Croatia we saw that Spain need to improve when it comes to dealing with crosses and that will be a big challenge for the back line against a player of his calibre in red-hot form.

Spain will not change their playing style, but Switzerland are a side who are more comfortable without the ball than Croatia. I think we will see a similarly tight affair to the early group stage games with Sweden and Poland.

Vladimir Petković's boys showed against France they can keep a side at arm's length when not in possession. So I think it’s a matter of making the ball move quickly, making them run and trying to tire them out, moving them from one side to another, taking advantage of any of the spaces they leave at the back.

What's the story?
"What a match! What an evening of football," said goalkeeper Yann Sommer after saving Kylian Mbappé's penalty to win Switzerland's round of 16 shoot-out against France; their first win at a knockout tournament since the 1938 FIFA World Cup, and the greatest night in Swiss footballing history. Vladimir Petković's had apologised for his side's performance after their 3-0 group stage loss to Italy; after their 3-3 draw against Les Bleus in Bucharest, they can do no wrong.

Switzerland vs Spain: who will reach the semi-finals? 🤔
Switzerland
Spain
Spain played with fire in the round of 16, letting a 3-1 lead slip against Croatia before finally finishing off Zlatko Dalić's side in extra time. Luis Enrique's squad started off the group stage with two draws, but have hit a stride of sorts, becoming the first side to score five goals in back-to-back EURO finals games. Confidence is building, but Sergio Busquets will remember that when Spain last met the Swiss at a final tournament, they lost 1-0 in their 2010 World Cup opener in Durban.
