Confirmed Spain XI: Simon; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella; Ruiz, Rodri, Olmo; Yamal, Morata, Williams
Final | Spain vs England
- Thread starter top1whoisman
- Start date
Side rant: Wish Saturday night finals were the default for major sporting events.
Going to work the next day and then the time difference (for some of us) is a pain. Ugh

Luke Shaw is the first player to make his only start in a UEFA EURO tournament in the final since Marco Delvecchio at EURO 2000 for Italy. Shaw is the only player in either starting XI tonight who has scored in a major international tournament final. Nous.

Good luck to England. This Irish lad will not begrudge you a win.
But I'll laugh like an eejit if you lose!
Good luck all the same.

It doesn’t matter who wins or loses. What matters is that everyone has fun.
Delvecchio scored in the final...
Be an interesting reception for Bellingham when he goes back to Madrid, if he scores a last minute winner
Ffs I'm scared. I'm surely we have to win something some day don't we.
What's everyone watching on? BBC or itv?

Ruiz, Rodri and Olmo. What a bloody midfield.
For me, it’s Jenas who’s the very worst, although it’s a very close contest with Dixon. And at least with ITV you have Ally McCoist. It’s a very difficult choice.
Not sure why Spain are even turning up for this.
I suppose someone has to pick up the losers medals.

Relax all, you're going to win it

Geez, Rodri is only 28? Thought he was a few years older.
England winning in penalties would be kind of cool. Exercise those demons.
Rooting for you Brits, hope you bring it home finally. Would love to see our United boys lift the trophy today.
Whichever.
The mute button will be getting used.
No disrespect to either commentary team intended, but it's kind of all their fault.
I cannot believe anyone in their right mind would choose to listen to Matterface when there's a far less ear-bleedingly, cringey, scripted alternative. Mowbray might be annoying but he's ground level, while Matterface is in the Stratosphere.
Only 28? He only has two years left.
There are Yoga poses that look pretty demonic to me.
What happens once it’s come home? What will happen?
World peace
Step at a time
England could complete an absolutely terrible weekend here.
That’s precisely what I’m saying. Are you supporting England tonight?
Kane dropping into midfield might be useful this game. Ball retention will be key if playing with a back 5
We can concentrate on United in peace then.
Has anyone tried saying it three times in a mirror yet.
Pressure is for tyres!
Trump guaranteed - England lose the final. What else has gone wrong?
I'm getting a headache off this montage.
That might be the worst video the BBC has ever produced.
Candyman?
You’ll be in bed trying to sleep tonight, and…..”Pressure is for tyres!!”
Ronnie Pickering?
Who did you get when you said it?
As a Yank, been moaning about this point for years. Super Bowl, World Cup, Euro Final etc, should all be played Saturdays.
I stopped at the second candyman.
Yep. BBC for me as well. England expects and we have the players to win this. But we have to perform as a team.
