‘Dream-stealer’: England stars became a bad offender when making disappointed mistake to let spain score agonising late goal to win 2-1 in final EURO 2024

If you keep living in a risky way, you will slip and break your necks one day.

All through the event, Gareth Southgate’s team had been walking on a tightrope. They had been behind in all four of their knockout games.

It was heartbreak for England again in the final

In the final, England lost again, which broke their hearts.

Cole Palmer had an instant impact off the bench as he equalised with a brilliant strike

Cole Palmer made an immediate difference when he came off the bench and scored a lovely goal to tie the game.

Only for Mikel Oyarzabal to score the winner

Mikel Oyarzabal scored the game-winner, though.

During most of the Euros, England played badly, and they were completely outplayed for most of the final.

There may have been sadness late in the game, but this wasn’t a fantastic fail.

In the last four weeks, Spain was the better football team, while England was only good at times.

And that’s how the final turned out: Spain scored and destroyed England, while Palmer only gave England one chance.

The Three Lions became the first team in history to lose back-to-back Euros finals, so football is not going home. Southgate will no doubt be leaving now.

Over the past eight years, he has done a lot to help England, but after two finals, a semi-final, and a quarter-final, he will be remembered as a “nearly man.”

A nearly man who beat a bunch of nowhere-near men, but still a nearly man it was.
