EURO 2024: SPAIN CROWNED CHAMPIONS AS ENGLAND’S WOES CONTINUE

.
Mikel Oyarzabal’s 86th minute strike earned Spain its 4th European Trophy in the just concluded Euro 2024 trophy with a 2-1 win over England. The heartbreaking strike extends England’s wait for a trophy to 60 years.


Spain maintained control and applied relentless pressure, leading to Nico Williams’ opening goal just two minutes after the break, following Lamine Yamal’s impressive run and pass. This was a much-needed boost after Rodri’s half-time injury. However, after England captain Harry Kane’s disappointing performance and subsequent substitution, Cole Palmer emerged as the latest England hero, scoring a superb strike to level the match.


The Chelsea youngster’s goal, assisted by Jude Bellingham, threatened to turn the tide in England’s favor. As extra time loomed, England felt the momentum shifting, but Spain quickly regained their grip on the match. Jordan Pickford made two brilliant second-half saves, including a crucial stop to deny Lamine Yamal, who was later named young player of the tournament. Ultimately, Spain’s persistence paid off, as Marc Cucurrela’s cross was turned home by Oyarzabal in the dying minutes, leaving the Three Lions with time to mount a comeback.

England thought they had equalized when Declan Rice met Palmer’s corner unmarked, but Unai Simon parried the shot, and despite Guehi’s effort to nod the ball towards the line, Dani Olmo cleared it away, preserving Spain’s lead. Spain made history by becoming the first team to win the European Championship four times, triumphing over a determined England side that fell just short of another comeback victory.
