Aggrieved German supporters jeer Spain’s Marc Cucurella during Euro 2024 semifinal vs. France

Associated Press  

MUNICH — Seemingly sore that their team was not playing, German soccer fans booed Spain player Marc Cucurella for the duration of the European Championship semifinal against France on Tuesday, Any time Cucurella had the ball during Spain’s 2-1 win over France, he was whistled loudly by many German supporters in the crowd. “I don’t understand these people that come to a stadium to whistle and boo.” The fans apparently blamed Cucurella for a penalty that was not given to Germany during its quarterfinal loss to Spain on Friday. But German fans were incensed that referee Anthony Taylor did not award a penalty to their team when Jamal Musiala’s goalward shot rebounded off Cucurella’s arm in the first period of extra time. German fans who had bought tickets to Tuesday’s semifinal expecting their team to be there took out their frustrations on Cucurella.
