Spain and England are set to face off in the UEFA Euro 2024 final on Monday at the Olympiastadion Berlin Stadium in Germany. Fans can watch the match live on the Sony Sports Network. Spain, under head coach Luis de la Fuente, has been playing an impressive tiki-taka style of football, making them the favorites to win the title.
Spain’s attack has been particularly strong, with young players like Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams providing creativity on the flanks. The team’s solid defense, led by Robin Le Normand, Aymeric Laporte, and Rodri, has allowed them to perform well throughout the tournament. Spain has scored 13 goals from 108 attempts on their way to the final.
