Spanish national team captain Alvaro Morata dropped his head due to an unexpected ordeal.
Britain's The Sun reported on the 10th (Korea time) 'The Spanish national team's security team injured a star player'
Spain came from behind to win 2-1 in the Euro 2024 semi-final against France at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany on the 10th. France took the lead in the 9th minute of the first half with a score by Randal Kolo Muani, but Spain turned the game around with consecutive points by Ramin Yamal in the 21st minute of the first half and Dani Olmo in the 25th minute of the first half. Spain, which has maintained its gap since then, has made it to the finals.
However, there was a player who could not laugh even though Spain advanced to the finals. It was Alvaro Morata, the main striker of the Spanish national team.

The Sun added 'Spain's national security guard tried to stop anyone from entering the stadium after the game, but he slipped in the process and threw a sliding tackle on Morata. The contact looked serious, and Morata collapsed. He then complained of considerable pain, limping around the stadium while his teammates celebrated. In the end, there are concerns that he will not be able to play in the final.
Morata started all three group games to the semifinals at Euro 2024. Along with one goal and one assist, he showed good movement in the front and was expected to play in the final, but he was on the verge of injury in this situation.

Morata also expressed his sadness about criticism in Spain ahead of the tournament, which is all the more regrettable. He said "It's hard to be happy in Spain. No one respects me in Spain. "I'm focusing on the Euro tournament, but I don't think it's best to stay in Spain." With this performance in the tournament, I was able to overcome this atmosphere surrounding myself, but I was on the verge of injury ahead of the final.
Luis de la Fuente said it was not yet definitive that Morata would be out with a major injury. He `will wait until tomorrow. I hope it's okay," he said, noting that he will watch the situation.
