BBC football news reporter at the England campIf you ever wondered how the pictures of players are sorted for the various outlets and newspapers, this is how.
The photographers all jostle for position to get the best shot and the player spends a few minutes trying to make sure they’ve looked at all of the cameras.

BBC football news reporter at the England campAs the press conference finished, Phil Foden who had been doing media elsewhere in the castle where Englands media centre is came to watch Luke Shaw.
Once the question was finished he started to play darts against the journalists and said he lost his first game of the tournament to them!

Jesper Langbroek
Dutch football journalistThe Turkey game I think showed the Netherlands have a good Plan B - using Wout Weghorst as a striker with Memphis Depay just behind.
See AlsoMatchfit KlemmsystemWith a late goal fit for a king, England reaches another Euro final by beating Netherlands 2-1England played with five defenders against Switzerland, so it made it very compact in that area. I think this is the way we need to play if we are going to do it.
The thing I have noticed with this team is they need a wake-up call to get going. They had that against Austria and then against Romania they were good. Then they had another wake-up call when Turkey took the lead in the quarter-final.
There is more in both these teams but they are not coming out yet - and that is a similarity between the sides.
I think the winner will come from the other side of the draw. England and the Netherlands have not yet been tested really; they have faced some good teams but not played the big countries as they are on the other side of the draw.
I think Spain will win because they are playing good football as a collective. England, France and the Netherlands are still waiting to get everything together, but time is running out.
WINNER: Spain

Julien Laurens
French football expert on BBC Radio 5 LiveWe have seen the best of France defensively, certainly. This is what they do, it is their style and it is their DNA. It is also how you win tournaments, being solid defensively.
Where they have perhaps not been at their best is with the ball. They do not play sexy football, it is not what they are about - but they have been lacking in terms of creating chances. They are usually more effective in the opposition's box.
Along with Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe has possibly been the biggest disappointment at this tournament.
There are a few explanations, the first being the mask he has had to wear after breaking his nose against Austria. In that game he had looked quite sharp. He also had a few fitness issues before the Euros, so I do not think he is fully fit - but the mask is also really bothering him.
If there is one team that can frustrate Spain more than any other here, it is France.
For me, with Spain's problems in midfield as a result of Pedri's injury it will be a case of who wins the battle in the middle. The physical impact the France midfield has is incredible and that is where the game will be won.
This will be a big game for Antoine Griezmann considering he has spent more of his career in Spain than in France, so we need him and Mbappe to raise their games.
I want a France-England final and I think France, of the four semi-finalists, have the ruthlessness and the experience of this level. I also think at some point Kylian will become Kylian again and will be unbeatable.
WINNER: France

Phil McNulty
BBC Sport chief football writerIf England were to win their first major trophy since the 1966 World Cup, this would not surprise me – but while a sixth sense says England, the head says Spain.
Spain have looked the best team in what has been a mixed Euro 2024 although they could still come unstuck against a hugely talented but regimented France under Didier Deschamps.
None of France's players have scored a goal from open play while Spain have been fluent with Lamine Yamal, who is not 17 until the day before the final, a revelation in a side that also boasts world-class talent in the shape of figures such as Manchester City’s Rodri.
Spain have a potent mix of youth and experience, are growing into the competition and have looked the most impressive team from the start – but I believe they will have to get past England to win Euro 2024.
WINNER: Spain

Guillem Balague
Spanish football journalist on BBC Radio 5 LiveAgainst France we know we will have to take the initiative, like we had to do against Italy, Albania and Georgia. We will have to be careful against counter-attacks.
I know for France to win they do not have to play well, but we are also able to win without playing well.
Perhaps we are not as efficient as we should be with our shots, but because we press so often, eventually we tend to crack the nut and that will happen against France.
We have suspensions while Pedri was injured in the last game, and we will also have to be careful against France's pace in the likes of Ousmane Dembele and Kylian Mbappe.
But it will go down to what Spain does without the ball - and we are the best team at pressing high, even though there are tired legs - and with the ball.
I think we will beat France and will meet England in the final.
WINNER: Spain
