Two countries with a vast footballing legacy battle to be crowned the champions of Europe.

The stage is set for a blockbuster clash on Sunday in Berlin as Spain and England lock horns in Europe’s ultimate game, the Euro 2024 finals. Destiny has chosen two of the oldest football-playing nations in the world with a century-old legacy of footballing greatness to face off against each other in Berlin to become the champions of Europe. A lot will be at stake on Sunday as this is a rare and once-in-a-four-year opportunity for every team on the continent to etch their names in golden letters in the annals of history.

Spain, who are arguably the best team in the tournament so far, have reached the finals after convincingly defeating strong sides like dark horses Georgia in the round of 16, knocking out hosts Germany with a 120th-minute headed winner, and scoring twice against France in the semi-finals after going down in just eight minutes.

Thanks to the stunning equaliser from 16-year-old Spanish wonderkid, Lamine Yamal, whose goal will be remembered in Spanish folklore for ages. Spain, who are undefeated in the competition so far after winning six matches, will look forward to winning their seventh and most important match to become the most successful team in Euro history by winning their fourth trophy.

On the other hand, England faced many criticisms for their lacklustre and boring football despite a star-studded squad. They were just seconds away from the brink of a humiliating Round of 16 exit if Jude Bellingham didn’t score that wonder goal in the dying minutes of the match. They have always chosen the less-trodden path as they went on to concede first in each of their knockout games, but somehow, they were brave enough to bounce back.

It seems destiny has chosen them to fight against La Roja in the finals to redeem themselves as champions of Europe, which they couldn’t achieve after narrowly missing out on their maiden Euro title in penalties to Italy in the last edition at Wembley.

Kick-Off:

Sunday, 14 July 2024 at 8 PM UK

Monday, 15 July 2024 at 12:30 AM IST

Location: Olympiastadion, Berlin, Germany

Form:

Spain (in all competitions): W-W-W-W-W

England (in all competitions): W-D-W-D-D

Players to Watch:

Lamine Yamal (Spain)

The 16-year-old Spanish poster boy has risen through the ranks. Yamal scored an awe-inspiring stunner against France to propel Luis de la Fuente’s side into the finals of Euro 2024. Born to a Moroccan father and a Guinean mother, Yamal has been instrumental throughout the tournament and has played a crucial role in navigating Spain’s undefeated streak in the competition.

The golden boy of Euro 2024 will carry the weight of Spanish expectations to be crowned the champions of Europe yet again after a long wait of 12 years.

Jordan Pickford (England)

The veteran English goalkeeper could be the most important player for England in the finals. Jordan Pickford, who has played every single minute in this competition so far, will have to unleash his inner beast when he faces the mighty Spanish attack with the likes of Yamal, Alvaro Morata, Nico Williams and Dani Olmo.

He has made some crucial saves in the tournament so far, including England’s penalty win over Switzerland in the semis. If the match goes to penalties, the Three Lions will have the upper hand, considering Pickford’s wealth of experience standing between the sticks for England.

Match Facts:

  • Both teams are unbeaten so far.
  • England have a slightly better H2H record against their opponents.
  • Gareth Southgate’s men have reached their second Euro finals consecutively in two editions.

Injury and Team News

Luis de la Fuente will be pleased with the return of Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand from their semi-final suspensions. Apart from Pedri and Ayoze Perez, Morata’s fitness will be a big question mark after an incident of pitch invasion saw him limping in Munich.

Luke Shaw’s recovery and stepping onto the pitch for England have proved to be a good omen as Gareth Southgate will have a fully fit squad ahead of the finals against Spain.

Head to Head:

Total matches – 27

Spain wins – 10

England wins – 14

Draw – 3

Match Prediction for Spain vs England

The Euro 2024 finals is set to be an epic mouth-watering clash between two of the great footballing nations in the world. Despite every footballing pundit predicting that the best team in the competition so far, Spain, will clinch their fourth title after edging past England, we are predicting the Three Lions to bring the trophy home by getting the better of Spain in penalties. It seems destiny has chosen Southgate to end the English fans’ long wait of 58 years without a major international trophy.

Predictions: Spain 2-2 England (England to win on penalties)
