Spain and England remain in the hunt for the most prestigious trophy in European international football. These two teams will clash on Sunday, July 14, in the final of the men’s 2024 European Championships. Spain aims to win their fourth Euros title, while England seeks their first.

England’s History

Three years ago, Gareth Southgate’s England faced a similar situation but lost narrowly on penalties to Italy. As we approach the conclusion of this year’s Euro 2024 tournament, we will look at their head-to-head records, paths to the final, and key players to watch.

Spain vs England: Head-to-Head Record


Sunday marks the first meeting between Spain and England since 2018 and their 27th encounter since 1929. Despite Spain’s recent success, England has won 14 of their 27 clashes, while Spain has 10 victories, and there have been 3 draws. Since 2000, Spain has won 5 of their 9 meetings, but historically, England dominated, winning seven consecutive matches between 1960 and 1980. Notably, Spain has never beaten England in the European Championships, with England winning on penalties in their 1996 encounter.

Spain’s Road to the Final

Spain has arguably been the most entertaining team in the competition. They started with a 3-0 victory over Croatia, followed by narrow 1-0 wins against Italy and Albania, topping their group. In the knockout rounds, Spain defeated Georgia 4-1, Germany 2-1 in extra time, and France 2-1, with standout performances from Dani Olmo and 16-year-old Lamine Yamal. Next, they face England, a team they have never beaten in previous Euros.

In the knockout rounds, they overcame Slovakia 2-1 in extra time, defeated Switzerland on penalties, and secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over the Netherlands, thanks to a last-minute goal from Ollie Watkins.
