SPAIN VS ENGLAND
Sunday 14 July @ 21:00
After a month of spectacular international football, we’re down to the final two nations that will step out onto the field at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, and fight to become the undisputed Kings of Europe. Both Spain and England had to come from behind to secure their passage to the final, but it’s only safe to say that Espana is the team on fire and rightfully so, the favourites to win the trophy.
The Spaniards are on an eight-match winning streak. The last time they managed to string nine, in 2012, they went on to lift the Euro championship trophy. If La Roja repeats that feat, they will secure a record fourth title and eclipse Germany, making them the most successful nation in the competition’s history. The likes of young stars Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal have been so impressive, and they will indeed have something to say if Espana can secure the crown.
The Three Lions came in as potential favourites, according to the bookies and with the high quality of players among their ranks, it made sense as to why they sat around 3/1 to become champions. However, England’s tournament hasn’t been pretty by any means. Their performances have been below par, but shockingly due to some individual moments of brilliance. They have landed in their second consecutive Euro final, which is an historic achievement (first final on foreign soil).
Spanish boss, Luis de la Fuente, is confident that his boys can complete the task ahead, especially with the confidence of an entire country fully behind him. However, Gareth Southgate, has been under immense pressure and scrutiny, but he would love nothing more than seeing his lads spin the narrative and bring the cup home. Harry Kane may not have been at his best at these finals, but converting from the spot against the Netherlands made him the all-time top scorer in the knockout stages of the Euros (six).
The stage is set, history will be made either way. Who will rise to the occasion and reach the promised land. There are decent ODDS on both nations, so this is the time to make those brave decisions and choose your champion to be.
