Oh god just let it make it to page 400 and let's forget about this!!!
The football was good but it was probably my worst choice in putting bets, I simply couldn't with the basics and stick to the favorites, I just had to improvise every single time and have a near miss in the best case or a full 0 out of 5 for the day. As much as it was bad for me I think it came worse for the bookies too, there were no real major surprises really, a few draws, maybe Italy out but looking at the ods the market got the thing pretty good.

So let's be done with it and talk about 2028!

I can say that Spain won the cup comfortably thanks to Southgate. The decisions taken were quite interesting. Kane was having a bad game. He took it off in the 60th minute, but no one would have expected the change in Kane. In the half hour, Kane's probability of scoring a goal depends on his one touch, even in his worst game.

Of course, it's not just the Kane decision. The England team owned by Southgate would have been more resilient against Spain if he hadn't just done the unbelievable things he did. If we put aside that Spain is a very strong and good team.

Spain defeated England to win the trophy. With this squad and with this fight, Spain really deserved to win the trophy this season. In the final match, we can say that they played a good game against England, again showing their difference and superiority. There were some unfortunate moments in the game. Especially Olmo's ball from the line in the last seconds was one of the most important moments of the game.

Why do you think for me if you can just read what I actually wrote? 
It's quite funny that simple facts (the teams' path to the title) aroused some unhealthy emotions in you.

By the way, it would be more logical (and then the “tournament” would at least have some justification for its name) if first the winner of the America's Cup played with the winner of the African Cup of Nations and only then played with the European champion.

I have to agree with what you said, in terms of game Germany or France are better than England. Spain was actually not the team most favored to win the trophy at first, but slowly they managed to impress, eliminating other strong candidates such as Germany and France. In fact, England does have better squad depth, but Gareth Southgate strategy is considered ineffective in reducing Spain's aggressive play. In my opinion, Gareth Southgate must update his strategy in the future, if he still retains his position. Spain managed to win the Euro trophy for the 4th time in history, and they really deserved it.

Actually Southgate is a good coach and in fact he managed to bring England twice to the Euro final, but indeed the poor selection of players actually made Southgate have to continue to lose the championship trophy, as in yesterday's final match where Southgate should have been more focused on playing players who performed well in previous matches such as Wattkins and Palmer,  But I don't know what made Southgate reserve that the two players and hope to make a miracle when the match is almost over, even though England game is better than the previous match but England looked stalemated when they attacked and finally the chances they were able to create were very minimal in endangering the Spanish goal.
Reportedly, currently England is still entrusting Southgate to handle the national team ahead of the World Cup, Although perhaps the decision will get a lot of rejection, it seems that England has no other choice at this time because the World Cup is getting closer, while to find another coach and form a new team framework will certainly cost a lot of money and time, so that England will keep Southgate.

Although Spain dominated the game in the match, but actually England was also able to put a lot of pressure on Spain on several occasions, England was actually able to keep up with the aggressiveness of Spain game but indeed England's attacking line which looked very bad actually made it difficult for England to create goals in the match

The Spain team may have defeated the stronger teams to become the Euro champions. Argentina, on the other hand, have won against relatively minor teams. But do you think Argentina is far behind Spain? If you think that, you're living in a fool's paradise. I don't see any reason to think Argentina team is weak. Also don't forget Argentina won the SOFC World Cup. And since before the World Cup Argentina team has been in great form. Still the party has maintained continuity.

Spain's squad may be relatively strong. However, Argentina's match strategy and players' bonding is very strong. So I don't think Argentina will lose against Spain. The match between Spain and Argentina will surely be very competitive.

In this tournament in Spain, they won the match against England with a 2-1 goal margin. And in this match, Spain's youngest players performed brilliantly, due to which they beat England very easily.
But there was a funny story that happened in this match which really made me laugh a lot, and it went viral on social media. A video shows the players changing their clothes naked in the dressing room of Spain's players. Moreover, this video also shows Spain's captain Álvaro Morata shirtless, however it has gone viral on social media now and people are laughing about it. I think it could be that Spain, in their joy of victory, created a situation that has now gone viral on social media. 

The English fans are over-confident about their national team, but unfortunately their expectations are not always fulfilled and unfortunately for them they have a coach who does not fully appreciate the quality of the English players, and they have enough quality. It will be pure bad luck I think, they will try again in four years to try to win it

Bro, Southgate has to answer for this snoozefest versus Spain. In international football, depending on the same big names (Kane, Bellingham, and Foden) every time doesn't work. Like a broken record, Southgate refuses to adapt his strategy, particularly in crucial games. Man, I'm killing myself. Young people like Cole Palmer and Ollie Watkins here are eager and ready to play. Give them a chance! Perhaps then we could have shocked Spain and avoided ending with this expected loss. Southgate has been making dubious decisions during this entire competition. Really, bro, it's time for him to consider whether he is the appropriate leader of England

I don't know what else to say about England, but it is true that England needs a real change in the way it handles its squad and strategy. England needs a coach who can really get out of trouble like Pep Guardiola or Ancelotti, but Gareth Southgate seems irreplaceable. For me, Gareth Southgate is not a coach who is capable of bringing England to win the title in any tournament, that is a reality that we have to admit.

Spain excels at everything even though they don't actually have a super squad like England. Yamal and Williams are two of the best young players they have and both contributed greatly throughout the Euro 2024 tournament. Spain beat all the teams they faced until the final and they won the title without too many problems. Meanwhile, England continues to be haunted by a weak mentality and lack of good strategy.

You are so funny  . Quite right Harry Kane is a good player that help is team to succeed in many games but when it comes to final it seems so difficult for him to win, I first noticed that when he came to Bayern Munich and played his first final game with them many were saying that Bayern Munich will lose the game which I was surprised to hear that because Bayern Munich was not bad in performance then and I was anticipating for more goals because of the the presence of the Harry Kane on how he scored goals, but to my greatest surprise they failed to win the Cup and again in Euro final they failed again, but still I don't believe it's a curse, it just matter of time he will win a trophy in his football career.

Yeah maybe that's a fact, we all saw this match and Spain dominated from all sides even though we know England has a good squad but unable to compete with Spain. Southgate prefers Harry Kane as the main player in the lineup and this strategy has been successful in the last few matches, but Southgate forgot that this was the final match and their opponents already know how to anticipate Harry Kane in the defensive area so he couldn't move any further.

On the other hand, Spain played well and they have a great mentality. We know that before reaching the final, Spain had beaten several strong teams so that when they faced England in the final they had no problems, overall Spain should be appreciated for their consistent performance throughout the tournament.

Whether or not it was a surprise that they made it to the final is something that can be debated. The reason is that in terms of the composition of the players they have, they actually have a very good squad, in every position they are occupied by well-known players whose names we are familiar with. However, they only lost in terms of the game they were able to show so far.
As a squad I say they deserve to be in the final, but game-wise there are other teams who are better than them. But unfortunately the team that had a better game had to fall first. For example, Germany, they had to meet Spain so they had to be eliminated, even though in my opinion Germany could have been a team that deserved to be in the final if they weren't so quick to face Spain. Even comparing England with teams that are considered mediocre, I don't think their game is any better.

You were right at that time.  Spain football team won the match by 2-1 score. Spain  football team is top class team of the World and they proved that they are champions and nobody can beat them and nobody has capacity to win against Spain . But Spain could lose if luck didn't with the Spain team . Spain team is favorite for any tournament and  we saw whole UEFA Euro Tournament. We saw great performance from Spain team but in final match England team gave their hundred percent to win this match . And after that Oyarzabal changed the side of match when he did goal for the team . If score was level,we could see penalties and we could see the different result. I am happy because Spain deserve that . They are hard working players and they are working for the years to win this trophy.

It is quite difficult to hope that England will be able to provide resistance because they couldn't appear consistent throughout this tournament and it seems that what makes them like that is because of their coach's strategy. What I can see is that they have tried their best but, it cannot be denied that Spain has much better performance and quality than them.

satisfied or not, that's what can be seen in the English team's game. Observers have indeed not favored the English team in several previous matches. but they made it to the final I think it was an extraordinary surprise. We all saw that match, where Spain played better. they get wins and trophies. They deserved this, without underestimating the England team who had fought until the final round. remember they achieved it also not because of luck. we can't blame anyone, just enjoy the game and bet.

When you look at the statistics, you'll know that Gareth Southgate have been England's most successful manager in over 20 years now and that's why I don't expect him to be sacked anytime soon. Since he became the manager of the national team, England have reached the UEFA Euros Championship final as well as helping them reach the quarter finals of the FIFA World Cup in 2022. I know that most England fans wants nothing but the trophy of a major tournament which is why they're not considering how well the team have been performing under Southgate.
England squad is without doubt one of the best squads at the moment in terms of quality of players but with the numerous options in the team, it'll always be difficult to make the right decisions. The English FA have tabled an offer to Southgate that'll keep him with the national team until the 2026 FIFA World Cup so he's not likely to leave the team till after the FIFA World Cup

Fatigue is not an excuse for England failure to win the Euro trophy for the first time in their history, the only thing that can describe England failure is the small mistakes they made towards the end of the match. If England wanted to continue the match in extra time, they should have focused more on defense and closed all the gaps so that the goal scored by Miel Oyarzabal in the 86th minute did not happen, but due to negligence in blocking attacks from Spain, they had to concede a second goal which also made them must be satisfied as Runner up.

It is very difficult to win over Spain who are in their best form, they have eliminated the big teams, England should take the defensive initiative and play a little closed so that Spain cannot easily penetrate their defense. Yes, the competition was over, Spain managed to emerge as champion and England had to reap failure again, even though England had a luxurious squad, it didn't mean anything in front of Spain.

I personally don't think England played more relaxed after managing to equalize the score at 1-1 because in my opinion, England still played well but unfortunately Spain had a good moment to score a goal. But anyway,  I think Spain's second goal also happened so quickly and also had a bit of an element of luck too. Because after all, I saw that Cucurella was really almost late in making assists and I thought Cucurella would fail to provide assists. But yes, who would have thought that the assist made by Cucurella was really successful and very precise for Mikel Oyarzabal to execute to score a goal.

Apart from that, I think when Mikel Oyarzabal came on as a substitute with Morata in the 68th minute, I thought Spain had thought it was safe because they were leading with a score of 1-0 and I also thought Mikel Oyarzabal would not be able to score. Until finally, England was able to equalize the score at 1-1 in the 73rd minute and at that time I also thought thematch would continue into extra time. But yes,I was quite surprised when Mikel Oyarzabal managed to score the winning goal for Spain in the 86th minute of this final match. Congratulations to Spain, of course.
