Ian Wright struggled to contain his emotions when assessing England's Euro 2024 final performance against Spain.
England fell to a devastating 2-1 defeat in the European Championship final, after Mikel Oyarzabal netted a late sucker punch goal.
The Three Lions have no become the first team in history to lose successive Euro finals, while their wait for major silverware will go into its 60th year.

And after the game, Wright struggled to contain his emotions when assessing where it went wrong for Gareth Southgate's men.
Speaking to ITV, Wright said: "You look at [Phil] Foden, [Marc] Guehi, [Jordan] Pickford, [Bukayo] Saka, Kobbie [Mainoo], [Adam] Wharton coming through, [Jude] Bellingham.
"The fact is, being an England fan is being a fan. You have to go again and it's unfortunate.

"Me and Gary [Neville] were talking about what we need to do to get our players in the moment to carry on playing.
"I thought that not having a focal point was very very tough for us. No one can tell me we haven't got the players to play. No one can tell me we haven't got the players to actually do this.

"We need to find a way to do this and as much as we're despondent, and it's very disappointing now, I look at that list of players and think, 'Okay, let's go again.'.

"It's going to be very difficult because even when you look at Gareth there, he almost was speaking like he's distanced himself from England already.
"So we have to find a way to go again and we have to make sure that our young players who are in that dressing room are feeling this and realise that they're the ones who are going to have to take up the [responsibility]."
