The Euro 2024 final is set to be a clash of styles and approaches. On one hand, there is Luis de la Fuente's young and vibrant Spain - full of attacking ideas and energy. On the other hand, there is Gareth Southgate's England, who have somewhat crawled to the final with last-gasp winners and dogged determination.
Make no bones about it though, both these sides are stacked full of world-class talents who possess the ability to turn a match at any moment. This final is almost too close to call but Spain will be the bookmakers favourites.
