Lamine Yamal has detailed how he expects Spain to win the Euro 2024 final against England.

The Spanish forward has been one of the standout players at the tournament after breaking the record for the youngest player to feature in the competition.

As Spain head into the 2024 final against England as the favourites, he could be set to break even more records should he lift the trophy.

Spain have won every match they have played in Euro 2024 this summer, with impressive wins over both Germany and France in the knockout stages.

And it is exactly this dominant run that Yamal believes will give his side the edge on Sunday evening.

Speaking to Marca, he said: "A dream final, especially with England in front. Everyone wants to play matches like that. Now what we want is for the cup to end in Spain.

"Playing the way we are doing, like against Germany or France. Being ourselves, having the ball and controlling the game at all times. I think we are the best at that, and nobody can stop us if we do that.

"It is clear that as a team there is no one like Spain, playing the ball, going for the pressure. We are doing very well.

“In the end, putting that intensity in is key. Without it you cannot win a Euro final."

The 17-year-old has been a vital part of Spain’s success at the tournament, scoring one goal and registering three assists.

When asked how he has developed such impressive skills in such a short time, he credited his talent to the streets of Barcelona where he grew up

He added: “From the street, from playing with my friends. That's where the idea of ​​looking one way and going out the other comes from. That's where you learn.

“They (his friends) are freaking out. The match with France was a huge success. I have been told that everyone in my street in Mataró was shouting my name.”

Should Spain be successful on Sunday evening, it will be their fourth Euros trophy, taking them clear of Germany as the most successful team in the competition's history.

Spain will face England in the final of the 2024 European Championships in the Olympiastadion, Berlin at 8pm BST.
