SPAIN WIN EURO 2024 IN GERMANY, A BEAUTIFUL STORY, THUS WINNING THE TITLE OF CHAMPION OF THE OLD CONTINENT FOR THE FOURTH TIME.
Spain played for the record in this meeting, while England fought for a historic triumph. The final match of Euro 2024 was a very good meeting that I watched, you may ask if maybe 1-1 and we’ll still have extra time, and then everything will be decided in penalties it would be something all the way to the last moment all the time kept the game in suspense, but in the 86th minute Mikel Oyarzabal made it all clear to us who on the field and at that time is better and will win the fourth European Cup in 2024.
Spain in those EURO 24 games in Germany played very best football effective , reliable and they played very fast passes and their attack was well organized rehearsed and their defense was solid , and rener Luis de la Fuente claimed that the odds were even because this is a final anyone can win or lose in an instant .
This was Spain’s fifth appearance in the final. It triumphed in 1964, 2008 and 2012, and its only defeat came in 1984, when it lost to France, when players such as Michel Platini and Bruna Bellone were playing. The European champion, for the first time in history, was France, who beat the Spaniards 2-0 after goals by Michel Platini and Bruna Bellone , who were the protagonists of the championship.
England, on the other hand, had never won the trophy before. Their only previous chance was three years ago. 2020 in London they played at WAMBLEY , the opponents were the Italians and here they lost in a penalty shoot-out to Italy.
In this year’s tournament, England did not impress for long. In the group phase, they beat Serbia 1:0, drew with Denmark 1:1 and Slovenia 0:0. In the 1/8 finals, they quite luckily won against Slovakia 2:1 after extra time, while in the quarter-finals they drew with Switzerland 1:1 and were better at penalty kicks (5-3). They only impressed in the semi-final, winning the Netherlands 2:1.
The final was preceded by a short artistic ceremony to conclude this beautiful European Championship in Germany in 2024. We had a month of hard competition, FAIR PLAY, a lot of emotions, joy and tears, big surprises and teams that really showed character and skill in this tournament, and the fans and football fans cheered their teams on, for better or for worse – this is the European Championship tournament.
In the first half we did not see any goals. Not only that, the players of both teams did not create any sub-frame situations for themselves. The pace of the game was quite slow, which translated into the fact that the spectacle was not one of the most attractive. The best chance to score in the first part of the match was had by Phil Foden, but his shot from the bottom of the game time was defended without much trouble by Unai Simon.
The second half started with Hispanic domination A few tens of seconds after the resumption of the game Lamine Yamal played to Nico Williams. The latter had plenty of space to take a shot. The ball after his strike went past English goalkeeper Jordan Pickford and fluttered into the net. Luis de la Fuente’s charges decided to get going from the start and attacked and pressed all over the pitch defensively, which had an effect because a few minutes later they again had a Spanish situation where Danio Olmo’s shot was narrowly missed.
Shooting in the match Spain England started the former. In the 47th minute Lamine Yamal sent a great, delicate ball into the penalty area to Nico Williams, and the Athletic Bilbao winger gave goalkeeper Jordan Pickford no chance.
Clearly encouraged, De Le Fuente’s charges did not slow down. In the 55th minute, Alvaro Morata faced a chance, and shortly thereafter Williams made a slight mistake from distance.
In the 61st minute Gareth Southgate made a change in attack, Kane was replaced by Ollie Watkins, the hero of the semifinal against the Netherlands, in which he scored a goal in the end.
“The Lions of Albion” finally came to the fore in the 64th minute of the game. Jude Bellingham capitally turned with the ball towards the goal, but he hit a foul and the ball went far past the post. Two minutes later, “La Furia Roja” responded thanks to Yamal, whose shot was spectacularly defended by Pickford
However, the Spaniards continued to be more threatening. In the 66th minute, after a shot by the very active Williams, goalkeeper Jordan Pickford deflected the ball for a corner kick.
In the 70th minute of the game, Gareth Southgate introduced Cole Palmer to the field. As it turned out, it was the right decision. Three minutes after entering the field, the Chelsea player received a pass from Bellingham and with a precise shot on the ground from outside the penalty area beat Simon. The English led to an equalizer.
In the 73rd minute, the English equalized. Bukayo Saka played the ball into the penalty area to Jude Bellingham, the latter played it right back to Cole Palmer, who was running in from outside the penalty area, and the Chelsea winger hit a flat but very powerful shot and gave Unai Simon no chance.
When it seemed that extra time would be inevitable, the Spaniards struck the decisive blow. A quick attack by “La Furia Roja” ended with Marc Cucurella’s flat pass into the penalty area. His play was cut by Mikel Oyarzabal, who headed the ball into the net.
Four minutes before the end of added time, the Spaniards came out on top and continued to attack, but they didn’t come back to defend the result, they went on the attack and made several threats, but the English had two excellent chances to equalize after a corner kick. First, the team from the Iberian Peninsula was saved by Simon, and a moment later the ball from the goal line was knocked out by Olmo. In the end, the result of the match did not change anymore. The Spaniards became champions of Europe. The English, like three years ago, were left with only the vice-championship.
Gareth Southgate certainly wanted to win for his country the coveted trophy and be champion of Europe for the first time, but he did a good job and went to the second final in a row is a very good coach and if they now dismiss him or leave it would be a big mistake, because you can be dissatisfied with the result and the work as not You can be dissatisfied with the result and your job if you don’t get out of the group or only reach the quarter finals like Germany and the hosts and they should sack the coach because unfortunately Germany played very poorly or reach the semi finals like France and here Didier Deschamps should stay on and think about adding the best striker Zizu to his coaching staff, Zinedine zidan football manager and former one of France’s best players playing with him to bring some freshness to this team and discipline .
Luis de la Fuente, coach of the Spanish national team, did not hide his joy after the victory over England 2:1 in the final of Euro 2024. ‘Every day I am more and more proud of the players,’ he admitted. After the match, Bulls player Nico Williams. He said ‘ Now we are moving for the World Cup ’.
Euphoria, we are very happy. All our compatriots deserved it. Our families, our supporters… We have suffered a lot. The rivals have a good team – players who can make the difference. But we were able to counter their strengths and won the title. We make a great team. Now we’re off to win the world championship,’ admitted Williams
