Spain and France meet in Munich in the first Euro 2024 semifinal on July 9 with a final showdown against England or the Netherlands on the horizon.
La Roja have impressed throughout the tournament. They were the only team to win all three group games, before dispatching Georgia and hosts Germany in the knockout stages.
France's semifinal path has been less eye-catching, with just three goals scored — two own goals and a penalty — as Les Bleus have battled through to this stage. They eliminated Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal after a penalty shootout in the previous round.
Alongside two star-studded lineups, there will also be a key role for the match officials at the Allianz Arena, with Slovenian official Slavko Vincic confirmed as the match referee.
Here are all the details on Vincic's record ahead of this Euro 2024 semifinal clash.

Who is referee for Spain vs. France?
Slavko Vincic leads a team of seven match officials including three fellow Slovenians.
Tomaz Klancnik and Andraz Kovacic are his assistants on the night. Nejc Kajtazovic is on Video Assistant Referee (VAR) duty, assisted by Italian duo Paolo Valeri and Massimiliano Irrati.
Slovakian Ivan Kruzliak is the fourth official.
Vincic has been on FIFA's international match list since 2010 and got his first taste of the European Championship as an assistant official at Euro 2012.
Since then, he has featured regularly on UEFA/FIFA lists with years of experience referring games in the UEFA Champions League and international tournaments.
He oversaw three matches at Euro 2020, and two at the 2022 World Cup, handing out a total of eight yellow cards in each competition.
His most high-profile game to date came in the 2024 UEFA Champions League final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, where he booked four players as the Spanish giants clinched another European crown.
Slavko Vincic's record refereeing Spain and France
Vincic has officiated seven games featuring either France or Spain, but he has never refereed a match between the two teams.
His most recent encounter involving either side came in Spain's 1-0 Euro 2024 group-stage win over Italy where he cautioned five players, including Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand, who are suspended for the France match.
