DONAUESCHINGEN, Germany — Spain midfielder Pedri has been ruled out of the rest of the European Championship following a hefty challenge from Toni Kroos, who has apologised to the youngster. Pedri limped off the field in tears in the eighth minute of Friday's quarterfinal against Germany, which Spain went on to win 2-1 after extra time. The Spanish soccer federation says Pedri has a "grade two sprain in his left knee." The 21-year-old will play no part in Tuesday's semifinal against France or the final five days later, should Spain reach the trophy match. Pedri will stay with the Spain squad in Germany.
