On Saturday in Georgia, at the Batumi stadium, the final match of the European Youth Football Championship took place, in which the teams of England and Spain faced each other.
The last time these teams met in the final of the Youth Euro Cup was in 1984, and then the British defeated the Spanish on aggregate with a score of 3:0.
The account in this match was opened at the end of the first half. England midfielder Cole Palmer scored. In the second half, the Spaniards increased their speed and even managed to score, but this goal was disallowed due to an offside position.
The real chance to break away came in the ninth added-on to main time, but goalkeeper James Trafford deflected Adele Ruiz’s shot away.
England have won the Youth Euro Cup for the third time in history. The Spanish have five victories left.
