2024 - 75: MOTD Live: UEFA Euro 2024 - Albania v Spain

Gabby Logan presents coverage of the Group B match from Dusseldorf Arena, where both nations are set to conclude their round-robin fixtures, in a group that also contains Croatia and Italy. Spain have progressed from the group stages of the Euros on each of the previous four occasions, including reaching the semi-finals in three of the last four championships and, alongside hosts Germany, they're aiming to become the first nation to win this competition four times. This is the ninth meeting between these two countries, with Spain winning all eight previous fixtures, although their last clash in the Euros was as part of the qualifying campaign back in 1990. Albania's most experienced players are captain Berat Gjimshiti and vice-captain Elseid Hysaj, who have more than 140 appearances between them, and both ply their trade in Serie A, with several other Albanians having experience of playing in the top leagues around the world. With analysis from Ashley Williams, Ellen White and Jose Fonte, and commentary by Guy Mowbray.
