Spain strike late to beat England 2-1 and win Euro 2024

Spain
substitute
Mikel
Oyarzabal
slid
in
for
an
86th-minute
winner
to
earn
his
team
a
2-1
Euro
2024
final
victory
over
England
on
Sunday
and
a
record
fourth
European
crown.

Oyarzabal
finished
off
a
break
for
the
winning
goal
as
Spain
were
crowned
champions,
having
won
all
seven
games
they
played
in
the
tournament.

After
an
extremely
cautious
first
half
where
Spain
had
more
possession
and
their
opponents
got
the
only
shot
on
target,
it
only
took
two
minutes
after
the
restart
for
the
Spaniards
to
break
the
deadlock.

Teenager
Lamine
Yamal
found
space
down
the
right
and
delivered
an
assist
for
fellow
winger
Nico
Williams
to
slot
before
England,
who
fell
behind
for
the
fourth
successive
game
in
the
tournament,
levelled
in
the
73rd
through
substitute
Cole
Palmer.

Oyarzabal,
however,
denied
them
their
first
major
international
trophy
for
58
years.
