Spain dominated proceedings early on, showcasing superior ball control and tactical acumen.
Despite England's resilience, highlighted by a goal from substitute Cole Palmer in the 73rd minute, it was not enough to overcome Spain's determined defence and clinical attacks.

The late drama unfolded amidst VAR scrutiny, confirming Oyarzabal's goal was onside, much to the jubilation of Spanish fans.
The victory underscored Spain's dominance throughout Euro 2024, remaining unbeaten and asserting their prowess as one of Europe's footballing powerhouses.
