Breaking: Euro2024: The Three Lions fell at the final hurdle once more… as Spain rule Europe

England fell at the final hurdle once more as Spain won a tightly contested Euro 2024 final in Berlin.

The Three Lions came so close to glory at the last Euros, losing to Italy in a heartbreaking penalty shootout at Wembley, but Gareth Southgate’s side made a bright start in Berlin in what was a cagey final against Spain. But Nico Williams gave Spain the lead before Jordan Pickford was forced into a stunning save to deny Lamine Yamal.

Gareth Southgate sent on Ollie Watkins and Cole Palmer for Harry Kane and Kobbie Mainoo in a gamble and the Chelsea star validated the decision, burying a fine finish to level the score. But Mikel Oyarzabal handed Spain the lead again with a late strike to leave the Three Lions desperately chasing another equaliser.
