Spain vs England Euro 2024 final simulated as dramatic prediction made
England face Spain in the Euro 2024 final in Berlin for what could be a historic moment for the Three Lions.
In Wednesday's semi-final clash, England secured a 2-1 victory over the Netherlands, thanks to goals from Harry Kane and Ollie Watkins. Spain, however, has been one of the standout teams of the tournament, defeating France 2-1 in their semi-final and aiming for their fourth European Championship win.
Gareth Southgate, who experienced the disappointment of losing to Italy in the Euro 2020 final, is eager to clinch the Three Lions' first-ever Euros victory tonight. Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future as England manager before the tournament, reports suggest that Southgate will remain at the helm regardless of tonight's result.
So, who will triumph in the Euro 2024 final? Let's delve into it...

During this simulation, we used the EA FC 24 Euro 2024 game mode and updated the squads with the latest injuries and suspensions.
Spain is predicted to adopt a 4-3-3 formation, with their line-up likely to be: Simon; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella; Rodri, Olmo, Ruiz; Yamal, Morata, Williams. England is expected to field a 3-4-2-1 formation, with their starting XI potentially being: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Konsa; Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Trippier; Foden, Bellingham; Kane.
England found themselves on the back foot in Berlin, with Spain appearing more at ease during the game's initial stages. Lamine Yamal was a constant thorn in Kieran Trippier's side down the right flank, and he nearly broke the deadlock when his close-range header grazed the crossbar.
