England’s Heartbreak as Spain Triumphs in Euro 2024 Final
England's hopes of ending a 58-year title drought were dashed as they lost to Spain in the Euro 2024 final in Berlin. A late goal by Mikel Oyarzabal sealed their fate, continuing England's long wait for men's team success.
England’s quest to end 58 years of pain and disappointment ended in failure as they were beaten by Spain in the Euro 2024 final at Berlin's Olympiastadion.
Gareth Southgate's side were sunk by Mikel Oyarzabal's late winner, leaving England heartbroken once again and unable to end the long wait for success for the men's team.
Spain's young star wingers combined to give them the lead two minutes after the break, as Lamine Yamal's pass opened up space for Nico Williams to beat England keeper Jordan Pickford with a powerful low finish.
England captain Harry Kane was out of sorts once more and was substituted on the hour. It was Cole Palmer—on for Kobbie Mainoo—who raised hopes of another dramatic comeback with a composed left-foot strike after 73 minutes.
However, it was Spain who snatched the win four minutes from time as Oyarzabal slid home Marc Cucurella's cross, leaving England as the nearly men once more.
