History : – Germany have a superior head-to-head record against Spain. In 19 previous meetings, the Germany have triumphed eight times to Spain’s five.
This will be Germany’s sixth final, having won three of their previous five – won in 1972, lost in 1976, won in 1980, lost in 1992, won in 1996.Spain’s greatest Euro moment came on 21 June 1964 when they won the competition in Madrid, defeating the Soviet Union 2-1. They were runners-up to France in 1984.
And as we get ready for some more history to be made we have the Spanish barbers hoping to make history by shaving a record number of heads and the Germans making history by having none other than their Chancellor Angela Merkel as their number one fan.
