With the semifinals approaching for both the Euros and Copa America, FOX Sports has revealed the commentator assignments for each. Both Tuesday and Wednesday bring a doubleheader of contests with one game in each tournament. On Tuesday, France plays Spain in one of the best games of Euro 2024 to date.
