On July 6th at midnight, the first quarter-final match of the European Championship will take place, with host nation Germany facing Spain. Kimmich, at the team’s regular press conference this week, said that Spain is the best performing team in this European Championship so far, and praised the performances of Yamal and Nico Williams.
Kimmich first spoke about this quarter-final match, saying: “Spain is a team that wants to control the game. But we want to do that too. We need energy, courage and strength. Hopefully, we can also have home advantage. Ultimately, our responsibility on the pitch is to get the fans behind us. Our goal is definitely to beat Spain and advance.”
“I don’t know if Spain is actually happy to face Germany; likewise, we could have faced a weaker opponent. If you want to win this tournament, you have to beat Spain.
On the performances of Spain’s two young talents, Yamal and Nico Williams, he said: “They are both genius players, they play very well on the pitch, and we have to find solutions to stop them.”
