Spain 2-1 France
It was delight for Spain as they beat France to book their spot in the final of UEFA Euro 2024! Fabian Ruiz had a great chance which he poorly headed over the bar before France had the lead after just 9 minutes through Randal Kolo Muani! The ball in from Kylian Mbappe was great, as was Muani’s finish. In the 21st minute, Spain were back on level terms thanks to a terrific strike from young Lamine Yamal! This is an unbelievable goal! Just 4 minutes later and Spain had the lead as Dani Olmo scored after a brilliant bit of solo play! In the Second Half, Dayot Upamecano had a really good chance which he squandered before Theo Hernandez then had a great chance which he too wasted! Kylian Mbappe then had his big chance that he’d been waiting for, but he poorly blasted the ball well over the bar! Overall, Spain deserved to win here, and they will head into the Final as the favourites! As for France, they’re out, and they will look to go again in the future because they’ve been quite frankly very poor this Tournament.
Netherlands 1-2 England
Another late goal was enough for England to edge out the Netherlands to book their ticket to Berlin! After just 7 minutes, the Netherlands had the lead thanks to a rocket of a strike from Xavi Simons! This is a proper belter! Harry Kane then had a good opportunity which he blasted over the bar, but this somehow resulted in the referee going over to the monitor and giving a penalty. I’m sorry, but this is a farcical and quite frankly disgraceful decision! Anyway, Harry Kane stepped up and coolly converted to make it 1-1 after just 18 minutes! Denzel Dumfries was then there to clear Phil Foden’s effort off the line before Dumfries headed the ball onto the England crossbar! Phil Foden then came close again as he smashed the post from about 25 yards out before Jordan Pickford made a good save to deny Virgil van Dijk (in the Second Half). Bukayo Saka then thought he’d put England in front, but his goal was ruled out before, in the 91st minute, Ollie Watkins finished brilliantly to book England’s place in the Final! In the end, this loss will really hurt the Netherlands, and they have every right to feel hard done by. As for England, they’ve done it again, and fair play to them for that!
UEFA Euro 2024 Final: Spain VS England
After a Month and 50 games, Spain and England head to Berlin to collide in the UEFA Euro 2024 Final! Spain have won all six games they’ve played in this Tournament and they’ve done it with a pretty convincing aggregate score of 13-3! As for England, they’ve won 3 and drawn 3 in this Tournament and their aggregate score stands at 7-4! Overall, Spain have been the best team in the Tournament so far whilst England have survived multiple rounds to get through. However, the best team doesn’t always win, and sometimes being a little bit lucky is better than being a little bit good!
