Goals from Nico Williams and Mikel Oyazarbal, helped Spain become the first side to win the European Championships four times, with a battling 2-1 win over England.

La Rojas who have been the team of the tournament winning seven out of seven, didn’t quite have it all their own way as the start to the final was somewhat scrappy as both teams appeared to be cancelling each other out.

Spain’s star man Lamine Yamal, wasn’t even able to get in the game, such was the Euro 2012 winners’ struggles. But after half-time where key man Rodri, wasn’t able to come out for the second half.

This in theory was supposed to hand England an advantage, but ironically it allowed Spain to turn the screw, as Luis de le Fuente’s side were threatening to run riot.

England to their credit were able to weather the storm and got back into the game, thanks to Cole Palmer’s moment of individual brilliance. The Chelsea forward similar to Arsenal attack Saka, wrapped his left foot around a shot and scored a super goal in the goalkeeper’s bottom left-hand corner.

If you thought the game was going to penalties, you would have been forgiven this was the case. But up stepped Oyarzabal to break England’s hearts. The Real Sociedad forward stole a march in the middle of the English defence and placed his effort past Jordan Pickford to send The Three Lions home brokenhearted.

This could be the last game for Gareth Southgate, whose contract runs out in December.
