Southgate: England Must Look Perfect To Beat Spain In Euro 2024 Final
"We have to be tactical perfect because they (Spain) are a good team. However, we are also good because we are in the final," Southgate said, quoted from The Guardian, Saturday, July 13.
The England national team managed to secure tickets for the Euro 2024 final in Germany after a 2-1 win over the Netherlands in the semifinals on Thursday 11 July. This is the third time Southgate has brought England through the semifinals in the last four international competitions, both at the Euros and the World Cup.

"Spain deserves the favorite champion after what they showed in this tournament. They are the best team," Southgate said.
England advanced to the final by beating Slovakia, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Meanwhile, La Furia Roja moved to the final after eliminating Georgia, Germany, and France.
