Checkmate and into the final: EURO 2024 recap podcast
Description
Spain march on, all the way to Berlin for the grand final of the Euros, after beating one of the pre-tournament favourites, France.
Matt Clark (@MattClark_08) and Román de Arquer (@Aeroslavee) celebrate Spain's latest triumph and the sensational form of Lamine Yamal, still just 16 years old. A goal for the ages saw Spain draw level, before Dani Olmo – another unexpected standout of the tournament – scored the winner.
We praise Luis de la Fuente and his work in winning all six matches so far, before looking ahead to Sunday's final against England.
They came from behind in their semi against the Netherlands, as they have had to do in each of their knockout matches. Can they upset the form book and win the entire tournament, or will Spain's class shine through in Berlin?

Colombia have not beaten Argentina in their unbeaten run. They are definitely the most in-form national team at the moment, though. Imagine a Finalissima between Spain and Colombia!
