The win marks Spain's fourth European Championship title, affirming their place as the most successful team in the tournament’s history.
From the outset, Spain displayed their trademark style of beautiful, attacking football. The match began with a strong push from Spain, with Nico Williams breaking through to score the opening goal in the 47th minute. England briefly recovered with a goal from Cole Palmer, but Spain quickly restored their lead with a well-executed strike from Mikel Oyarzabal.

Despite England's efforts to level the score, including a notable clearance from Dani Olmo to prevent a late equalizer, Spain’s dominance was evident throughout the game. With 63% possession and relentless pressure, Spain’s strategy paid off, and Alvaro Morata proudly lifted the trophy as Spain’s coach, Luis de la Fuente, hailed the team as the best in the world.

Spain,
Thank you for not making this summer and at least the next couple of years completely fucking insufferable.
Kind regards,

The match also showcased the emerging talent of Lamine Yamal and the resilience of veterans like Dani Olmo and Rodri, the latter of whom was replaced by Martin Zubimendi after sustaining an injury. Spain’s ability to adapt and maintain their advantage, even in challenging moments, highlights a team that is both experienced and dynamic.

Look I can’t prove this 100% but it looks increasingly likely Spain won because they recognised Palestine — Tiberius (@ecomarxi) July 14, 2024
Spain's triumph at Euro 2024 follows their success in the 2023 Nations League and previous European Championship victories in 1964, 2008, and 2012. The team’s performance in this tournament reaffirms their legacy in European football, while England’s wait for a major trophy continues. Spain will take home €28.25 million in prize money, while England receives €24.25 million as the runners-up.
