Germany national team players are looking forward to the Euro 2024 quarter-final against Spain with a lot of respect, but no fear of the opponent, defender Joshua Kimmich said.
"Spain have made the most stable impression so far, so it will be a tough one - for both sides," Kimmich said on Monday.
The hosts on Friday will face title favourites Spain, who are the only team so far with a perfect record at the tournament.
"If you want to win the tournament, there's no way around Spain," the Bayern Munich player added.
Defender David Raum said that it's "a complement" when people refer to the match-up as an early final, but stressed: "I'm not cold sweating yet."
Germany and Spain are tied as record Euros winners, with three titles each.
