On July 6th, the European Championship quarterfinals saw Germany eliminated by Spain after extra time, losing 1-2 and ending their journey in the quarter-finals. This also marked the end of Kroos’s professional career. His career has been incredibly decorated with a total of 34 trophies, but the absence of a European Championship title remains the sole regret of his illustrious journey.
Kroos’s career has been a testament to excellence. He has amassed a remarkable 34 titles, including a World Cup trophy, 6 Champions League titles, 6 Club World Cup titles, 5 European Super Cup titles, 4 La Liga titles, 3 Bundesliga titles, 4 Spanish Super Cup titles, 1 Copa del Rey title, 3 German Cup titles, and 1 German Super Cup title, among other accolades.
For Kroos, the sole missing piece in his trophy cabinet was the European Championship crown. This tournament marked his last chance to claim this elusive title as he planned to retire after the tournament. Despite showcasing his exceptional talent throughout the competition, Germany unfortunately suffered a quarter-final exit at the hands of Spain. Kroos’s retirement, while bittersweet, is tinged with a hint of regret.
