Spain advanced to the Euro 2024 final, but the victory was marred by an incident involving starting player Álvaro Morata. After a fan rushed the field to take a selfie with the team, a security guard accidentally collided with Morata, causing him injury. Despite the pain, there is hope that Morata will be available for the final match. The incident highlights the ongoing issue of fans breaching security measures to interact with players. This comes after similar incidents involving Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappé earlier in the tournament. Increased security measures have been put in place, but fans are still attempting to meet their favorite players. The main concern remains the safety of the players, and although the team believes Morata's injury is minor, the incident serves as a reminder of the risks involved in these encounters.
