England fell at the final hurdle once again as Spain secured a hard-fought victory in the Euro 2024 final held in Berlin.

The Three Lions, who previously came agonizingly close to triumph at the last Euros, losing to Italy in a heartbreaking penalty shootout at Wembley, started brightly in what proved to be a tense final against Spain.

Nico Williams opened the scoring for Spain, and Jordan Pickford made a stunning save to deny Lamine Yamal from extending the lead.

Gareth Southgate then brought on Ollie Watkins and Cole Palmer for Harry Kane and Kobbie Mainoo in a bold move, which paid off when Palmer delivered a fine finish to equalize.

However, Mikel Oyarzabal restored Spain’s lead with a late strike, leaving England desperately chasing another equalizer.
