Madrid, Vienna, Kiev and now Berlin - if back in 1964 there were too few matches to talk about the beauty of football, the 2008, 2012 and 2024 tournaments with Spain brought everything that makes football loved.

Spain is again on the roof of Europe - for the fourth time in history, again deservedly, again with the bow of the whole world.

Luis de la Fuente's boys in the grand final of Euro 2024, they beat England 2:1 and left behind Germany with three titles on the eternal list.

Niko Williams and Mikel Ojarzabal put the crown on the phenomenal championship that went from Berlin (fury opened the epic with a victory over Croatia) to Berlin, while the scorer for England was Cole Palmer.

"The fourth is here - we are European champions again," wrote Marka after another great night of Spanish football.

From the start of the final, Spain wanted to show how much it enjoys football, how much it loves goals, but England's total defensiveness did not allow them to threaten in the first half.

When Rodri, the "brain" of this team, did not return to the field after the rest due to injury, it seemed that Spain would have even more trouble - but that impression disappeared after only two minutes.

The youth of Spain - Lamin Jamal and Niko Williams - were too fast for "proud Albion", the former assisted, and the latter checked Jordan Pickford diagonally from the left side (1:0).

It was the fourth assist of the "wonderkid" of Barcelona and the second goal of the maestro Ateltic from Bilbao.

Spain had many chances after that, Jamal and captain Alvaro Morata missed, and then came the shock in the 73rd.

Just three minutes after entering the game, Cole Palmer brought England back to life with a beautiful goal from the edge of the penalty area (1:1).

Although there are many masters in the team, "Albion" pulled back again, Spain wanted a goal, and substitute Mikel Ojarzabal brought it to them with three minutes to go in the grand final - he scored after a nice move that he built with Dani Olmo and assistant Marko Kukurelja (2:1).

"Fiesta" in honor of football could start in Berlin...

Spain celebrates, England, which remains only on the world title from 1966, mourns again - the second Euro in a row after defeat in the final.

From Berlin to Berlin only one team danced, only one team recorded all seven victories - Spain deservedly celebrates.
