On the last evening of the tournament, the teams of Spain and Turkey fought. The previous two "EURO" champions, the Spaniards, managed to defeat the Czech team in the first round of the tournament, so the result of the evening allowed them to secure a ticket to the next stage. Meanwhile, the Turks complicated their situation. Team line-ups: Spain: D. De Gea; J. Alba (81' C. Azpilicueta), G. Pique, S. Ramos, Juanfran; S. Busquets, A. Iniesta, C. Fabregas (71' Koke), D. Silva (64' B. Soriano), Nolito; A. Morata. Turkey: V. Babacan, H. Balta, G. Gonul, C. Erkin, M. Topal; S. Inan (70' Y. Malli), O. Ozyakup (62' O. Sahan), O. Tufan, H. Calhanoglu (46' N. Sahin), A. Turan; B. Yilmaz. In the first half, the favorites of the match, the Spaniards, started more actively. They managed to make dangerous passes into the opponent's penalty area in most of their attacks. The Turks tried to counterattack, but their opponents created significantly more opportunities. These turned into goals after playing for more than half an hour. Initially, Nolito delivered a perfect ball to Alvaro Morata, who scored with a header after outplaying the defenders in the penalty box. Just a few moments later, the "Celta Vigo" sniper himself scored a goal, taking advantage of Mehmet Topal's mistake and making a great shot in one touch. The wait for another goal from the Spanish team was not long - in the 48th minute, Andres Iniesta made a perfect pass to defender Jordi Alba, who found Morata, and the score became 3-0. However, in that episode, the referee did not notice an obvious offside. Despite being demoralized, the Turks tried not to give up and created a good opportunity for Burak Yilmaz moments later, but his shot went over the crossbar. Later, the Spaniards retreated slightly, but they did not manage to create particularly dangerous opportunities for their opponents. Vicente Del Bosque's pupils also scored three times in the match.
