Spain has emerged victorious from the Euros 2024.
The Euros 2024 final has culminated in a historic clash between Spain and England at Berlin's Olympiastadion, marking the culmination of a gripping tournament journey.

And it's Spain's fans who can finally breathe a sigh of relief and celebrate, conquering England with a final score of 2-1.
After a placid first half, Spain erupted from the gates in the second half with Nico Williams scoring in the 47th minute. England's Cole Palmer was able to claw back some hope with an equalizer in the 73rd minute, but Spain soon answered back with Mikel Oyarzabal snatching the victory with a 86th minute winner.
Gareth Southgate's England squad, despite facing early adversity against Slovakia, rallied through to the final with memorable victories over Switzerland and the Netherlands. Their journey has been characterized by quiet resilience and moments of - let's face it - pure luck.
But it was all epitomized by Jude Bellingham's dramatic late equalizer against Slovakia and crucial contributions from the likes of Harry Kane and Phil Foden.
On the other hand, Spain underlined their dominance throughout Euro 2024 with a string of impressive performances, dispatching heavyweight opponents like Germany and France en route to the final.
Led by standout players such as Rodri, Fabian Ruiz, and teenage sensation Lamine Yamal, Spain's journey has been marked by fluid attacking play and tactical astuteness.
In the final showdown, both teams entered the pitch with fervent determination, knowing that victory would etch their name in European football history.
