Similar Stories to Spain Beats England 2-1 To Win Record Fourth European Championship Title on Bing News

By STEVE DOUGLAS BERLIN (AP) — Spain is the king of European soccer for a record fourth time. For England, it’s another agonizing near-miss in the team’s decades-long tale of underachievement. Completing a tournament the team dominated from start to finish, Spain beat England 2-1 in the European Championship final on Sunday with Mikel Oyarzabal the unlikely match-winner in the 86th minute. Oyarzabal, a backup striker who came on as a substitute for captain Alvaro Morata, slid in to poke home a left-wing cross by Marc Cucurella, just when the game at Berlin’s Olympiastadion seemed destined for extra time. England, the birthplace of soccer, is still without a major title in men’s soccer since winning the 1966 World Cup and its players watched on forlornly as Morata raised aloft the silver trophy inside the stadium built for the 1936 Olympics. Add 2024 to the titles won by Spain in 1964, 2008 and 2012. “Here we are, champions of Europe,” said Nico Williams, whose opening goal for Spain in the 47th minute was canceled out by England substitute Cole Palmer in the 73rd.
