Spain's Lamine Yamal became the youngest player to score in a men’s European Championship, helping Spain reach the Euro 2024 final by defeating France 2-1. After conceding an early goal, Spain fought back with Yamal's stunning long-range strike and Dani Olmo's brilliant effort. This victory marked Spain's sixth consecutive win in the tournament, making them the first team to achieve this feat. Despite being underdogs, Spain has been dominant throughout the tournament, showcasing the talent of young players like Yamal and Nico Williams. In contrast, France struggled and heavily relied on Kylian Mbappé, who failed to shine after sustaining an injury. Spain's triumph was a result of their resilience and skill, setting them up to face either the Netherlands or England in the final as they aim for a fourth Euros title.
