At the end of the suspense, Spain emerged victorious from the Euro 2024 final. The team ended up winning 2 goals to 1 against England on Sunday in Germany. La Roja thus entered the history of the Euro by being the first nation to obtain a 4th continental title, shattering the dream of England, still without a trophy after 58 years of waiting.

In a Berlin Olympic stadium filled to two-thirds by English fans, the curse continued for the poor Three Lions, who have been seeking a title since the 1966 World Cup hosted on their soil… but who thrilled the Spanish fans. Like Toni, who, at the final whistle, did not hide his relief. Having come from Madrid, he admitted to having been very worried when England came back into the game in the second half. “After their equaliser it was stressful. They had two big chances and then we managed to score a second goal. [à la 86e minute]. I am very happy, it’s incredible! In this Euro, we never lost, nor drew, it was perfect,” the supporter enthuses.

The percussion, the speed, the possession of the ball, everything in Spain’s game seduced Michel. This Alicante supporter attended all seven of La Roja’s matches: “They all really play together as a team, they fight for each other, they stay focused… That was the key! They are the team that scored the most, so they deserve to win and we are very proud.”

Edvin, 48, did not expect to see Spain reach the final. It was especially the two young wingers who impressed him: Lamine Yamal, 17, since Saturday July 13, and Nico Williams, 22, scorer, Sunday evening. “They are not afraid of anything, they play without complexes and they are dangerous. When it doesn’t work, they try again, they never give up.”he analyzes.

“It’s promising for the future. Now it would be great to win the World Cup! They are young, so they can do it.”

“As always in this kind of game, the margins are slim, but they were the best team in the tournament. Overall, they deserved it.”England coach Gareth Southgate admitted, fair play, to the BBC. “Spain wants to make history”the coach had said before the final. It is now done.
