In Football, Spain won its record fourth European soccer championship after defeating England 2-1 in the finals of Euro 2024 in Berlin. Nico Williams provided the first goal for Spain, scoring less than two minutes into the second half after a scoreless opening. Spain looked the better team throughout the match, but England’s Cole Palmer scored the tying goal in the 73rd minute. 

Eventually, an 86th-minute goal from Mikel Oyarzabal gave Spain the winning lead. This is England’s second consecutive runner-up finish, having lost to Italy in the final of Euro 2020. The country has never won a European championship and its last major international tournament win was the 1966 World Cup.
