Spain vs England, Euro Final 2024 Highlights: Spain are the champions of Europe! La Roja rose to the occasion and beat England in a much-anticipated Euro 2024 final to clinch a Euro title for the first time since 2012. While the first half of the match had gone goalless, it was a 47th-minute goal from Nico Williams that first put Spain in the lead before the Three Lions managed to find in an equaliser.
Cole Palmer's 73rd minute goal helped the Three Lions restore parity, much like they had done in all three of their knockout stages of the competition before going on to win all of them to reach the summit clash. However, it wasn't to be for England in the final as Mikel Oyarzabal's 88th minute winner helped them win the match and claim the bragging rights of being called the champions of Europe, winning the match 2-1.

It was a record-breaking performance from Spain at many verticals. While Luis de la Fuente's became the first team to win all their seven matches including the final to clinch the European championship, their young sensation Lamine Yamal, who has been breaking record for fun, became the youngest winner of the tournament at 17 years and 1 day.

The result means the agonising wait for England's major international title since 1966 continues. Harry Kane would be gutted with the way it ended but given the way Spain had played throughout the competition they deserved to clinch the title. The last time Spain had lifted the Euros they had beaten Italy 4-0 in the final while the Three Lions only previous appearance in a final came in 2020.
