This Final is different , Spain have probably been the standout team at this tournament and put out some big names , beating the French and knocking the Germans out in their own tournament is extremely impressive .

I'm going with a football percentage angle , how many times in history have the most impressive team found the Final one game too many ?

The Dutch in 1974 were the standout but we've seen others too and I reckon England may well just do this .

That Final defeat 3 years ago will actually work for us in my opinion with the Spanish still extremely good but still emerging if you will .

Spanish slightly off it , England at their very best when it matters the most will get it done in my opinion .

2-0 to the three lions .
That’s exactly what happened to us in 2021 at Wembley. We had been far better than the Italians.
Just not savvy enough in the final. Southgate has learned from that.
