Kimmich: The game was very unfair. We played better and Spain escaped a handball penalty

On July 6, in the European Championship quarter-finals, Germany lost to Spain 1-2 after extra time, stopping at the top eight. German national player Kimmich ended the interview after the game, and he also said frankly that the game was not fair.

Kimmich said in an interview: “The game was very unfair. We played better in the second half and extra time. For a long time after we equalized, Spain only wanted to drag the game into a penalty shootout. We missed two good chances, and the opponent’s handball in the penalty area escaped a penalty.”

Kimmich talked about the progress of the German team compared to the European Championship: “We didn’t show our team spirit in the World Cup, but this game is very different. We showed a very good team spirit, so I’m more disappointed after being eliminated. Although Spain is a good opponent, there is no doubt that we are the best team. I hope that through my efforts, I can make German fans proud.”
