Spain won the Euro cup final 2-1 and regained the European crown after 12 years.

Cole Palmer scored England‍‍`s lone goal between goals from Spain‍‍`s Nico Williams and Mikel Oyarzabal. The Spanish are the Euro champions for the fourth time.

Spain‍‍`s ‍‍`wonder boy‍‍` Lamine Yamal surprisingly disappeared in the first half of the match.

The ‍‍`Three Lions‍‍` began to attack. From such an attack, in the 16th minute, Kyle Walker crossed into the box with the ball extended by Bukayo Saka. But before it went to the feet of any English player, Kukuraya cleared the danger in exchange for a corner.

Fabián Ruiz took a chance for Spain in the 28th minute. But Jordan Pickford  did not have any problem catching his shot as it was weak on English defender Marc Guéhi.

In the first half, Spanish defender Le Normand  went to free the ball from Declan Rice‍‍`s free-kick. The ball goes to the feet of English midfielder Phil Foden, who is in the gap on the left side. However, Spanish goalkeeper Unai Simon kept the score 0-0 with his crossing shot.

Luke Shaw kept Yamal in the eye throughout the first half. At the beginning of the second half, Yamal took the opportunity to hide his eyes for a while, taking the opportunity to take a 1-0 lead through Nico Williams‍‍` goal from his great pass.

It could have been 2-0 two minutes later. Dani Olmo took a shot from the middle of the box after getting Williams‍‍` pass. But it goes outside.

Pickford stopped Yamal‍‍`s shot in the 67th minute, two minutes later Fabián Ruiz hit the ball over the crossbar. Yamal wasted another easy chance in the 82nd minute from Dani Olmo‍‍`s pass.

However, Mikel Oyarzabal, who replaced Spain captain Alvaro Morata, stunned everyone with a one-two shot with Kukuraya in the 86th minute.

England got the chance to return to the match at the very end of the scheduled time. Unai Simon returned the great head of Declan Rice from Palmer‍‍`s corner. Mark Guehy heads the return ball. This time Dani Olmo cleared the goal line. Spain survived, spending the added 4 minutes to celebrate the title in Mate.
